Thanks for the quick reply! From the sound of it you're saying that I can actually replace my seat with a 318i coupe seat? I was searching only for 318ti drivers seats, but this would make my search a whole lot easier if I could expand it to include two-door models like the 318is.
Also: is swapping out the seat belt receptacle a costly addition to the parts/labor on a seat replacement? Need to factor that in if it's going to add significantly to the mechanic's bill.
Thanks again for your quick reply, really appreciate it.
