Recaro Sportster CS.

They're the same seat that BMW used for the M Performance seats. They fit the car so well. You can even get them with the side airbag and seat heating to work with the oem controls. AMX Performance sells either covers, or the full seat and covers with whatever options you want, with leather that is the same as factory. ///M embossed headrests, the ///M stripes like in the E36 vaders, whatever.

Yeah, I noticed that.

Are you part of the socal_bmw_la club?
I work nights, so it's hard to come to their 6-7am meets. But, I try to come out as much as possible.

Does AMX charge an arm and a leg? I've checked their site out but haven't seen anyone post pricing, etc. I have an ABE pole position I ordered for my 911 in the summer that still hasn't shipped yet that I may throw in for a couple months of the year, but would like something to match bamboo better and that looks like the best option.

Short answer, yes, but from everything I've seen and read, it's absolutely worth it. You can see more here: https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1684896

Rino924 · 01-20-2022, 09:23 AM

Thanks for that link. The cover option seems like the way to go.

Rino924 · 01-20-2022, 09:31 AM

Working on getting my quickjack together so I can get some winter maintenance knocked out. After my first round, I had a majority of my fittings leaking. Took it all back apart last night and got 4 of them re-done. Couple more need done and then try to test it out again.

If you used the liquid thread lock they provided you're guaranteed to chase leaks. I threw it away and used Teflon tape and had no leaks first time through the assembly

Rino924 · 01-20-2022, 09:38 AM

That is what I did the first time. This time I am taping them up. I knew I shouldn't have used that the first time lol

I appreciate it guys! Yup here's a good angle. Almost looks like there's way more leg room in the rear imo

Used to be, but no. Due to conflicts of interest with the creator back when SCBMWLA was just a small group of 5 lol.

None the less, I have an IG chat for a bunch of us in the LA/OC/SD area!

EJT86 · 01-20-2022, 06:17 PM

drwankel · 01-20-2022, 06:19 PM

Blackvue? Where did you tap power from?

Brasilcat · 01-20-2022, 10:07 PM

I hear you.
Let me know what the group Ig is and if you guys get together, let me know. I'll try to come out.
Cheers!

Yes Blackvue. I wired it into the fuse box with fuse taps. ACC to fuse #8 and constant to fuse #72 and then the ground wire to the screw

Mid winter wash and a drive to get some fresh air on a walk.

IvanE92 · 01-22-2022, 05:52 PM

Looked at it. Today, and the past few weeks or so. So sad. Hate winter weather. 26 degrees outside in NovA as I write this.
