SEAT HANDLES

[Jack0495]

Does anyone else have 'snapped' seat handles? It's the strangest of things to break it seems and both sides are snapped in the middle. Where can I get replacements and are they easy to fix?

Thanks!

Its quite common that these are found snapped you can get them on ebay or even Bm they are about 15-20 pounds from bm but replacing them involves stripping the seats.

Oh right, worthwhile to have seats fully restored while changing over then.. Thanks for help!

Do you mean the seat belt guides? If so, as mentioned they aren't expensive but can be changed over.

I changed my seat belt guides over the winter and purchased them from Sopers BMW for around £17.00 each. I did a small write up on the forum "Z3 seat belt guide repair" (sorry I do not know how to get the link - Gary may be able to help here)

In all honestly it is a job!! I think my small write describes it well, if you need any further help just PM me and I will talk you through it.
