Interior question E90 M3 rear seats

DudeWhatsUpMan · 04-05-2022, 10:21 PM

I was curious to know if this could work? Can you take an interior from a 3 series (08-2013) and put it in an E90 M3?

I know that most people take M3 interior and put it in a 3 series, but can you do it the other way around? I can't find OEM rear seats for my car, but I'm open to getting the 3 series rear seat since it looks almost the same.

It's simply two pieces I need since I'm trying to get non-folding rear seats. Would it bolt right up? Or anything I would have to do?

I appreciate any help, thanks!

I just did some research and it looks like the main difference is the leather quality. That would make sense, but still looking to find out more about fitment.

An E90 is an E90 … I don’t have actual proof but expect that fitments would be the same.

If E90M seats fit in a non-M, I'd expect the reverse to be true. The leather won't match nor will the stitch/cushion patter. But it should physically fit. I would look for whatever you have in terms of folding/non-folding, as mixing those parts will likely change interchangeability.
