Default PLEASE HELP!

so here's the deal, my car is slowly falling apart, first, my seat popped out, the back just broke on the right side so its all loose and leaning on that side, so if anyone knows where I can buy a cheap seat, lemme know. Also, these are some pics...replacement part codes, names or even a place to purchase would help soooo much! HELP!

realoem.com is a good place to find part#'s. pelicanparts.com and getbmwparts.com are both good places to purchase parts from.

there's a few threads on here if you search "broken seat" where people have the same problem, it's a weld on the frame that broke, you could just weld it back together and save some money over buying a whole new seat

Default Ouch

i haven't been involved with car stereos for 20 years, but they still come in a very limited range of standard sizes, so I'd be surprised if the size of it is the issue here. It just looks like things have come loose from their mountings.

The door panel is the big issue. Replacements are about $300 new, and beyond that the options seem to be a junkyard search or a clever, kudgey homegrown fix.

(At least that's what I think I know after dealing with my not-as-broken door for the last few months. Just replaced the regulator, and the body shop got the door panel back on much more tightly than previously, so I may live with it for a while instead of starting my own junkyard search.)

someone installed the radio wrong and pushed it in so hard it cracked the bezel and is now falling apart.
