M-Performance seats - HELP!

[David@fabspeed]

Hi all! My names Dave from Fabspeed Motorsport. I have been a member for a while now, reading and learning.. I didn't really have anything to post until now.. I am sure you guys hate when new members join to ask for help without contributing to the forum, however I am really stuck and need help!

Backstory: A great client of mine shipped me his 2014 X6M for a set of wheels and tires.. it has evolved into a full blown build, and the final detail I am trying to work out is the interior. (if anyone is interested, I can start a build thread in the appropriate section.. I personally think this will be one of the nicest X6's out there when completed).

Basically every aspect of this car is being upgraded, Vorsteiner front, rear, and spoiler, Mansory hood, KW V3's, ADV1 22's, Akrapovic full Ti exhaust, M-Performance side skirts (having the centers done in carbon fiber, m-performance steering wheel, grills, taillights, etc. Now the problem... The customer fell in love with the m-performance seats (these guys:


)

BMW cant give me an answer, I've called a dozen or more BMW specialty shops and they can't tell me.. The seats are only listed as fitting the e9x and e81 (1 series?).. my questions is, does anyone know if they will bolt into the x6 chassis? I understand they are just Recaro Sportster CS seats re-branded, but Recaro cant/wont help me either!

any help is seriously appreciated!

Cant wait to see your final look.....

about the seats I actually was looking on the same seats but couldn't get answers from anyone. I did end up buying a set a recaro seats then I custom made the bolting bracket. The only problem is that there is no airbag with these I got and with yours you would have to so some coding... good luck and keep us posted.

I know Gpower bolted in a set of Recaro CS's. Maybe try asking them?

thanks for the info! do you have anything else you can share with me on the brackets you made? did you start with a recaro bracket? or do side mounts?

This literally just arrived for her too from Daniels BMW in Allentown, I figured I would break out the SLR since it's sooo pretty! ... I'm in love!

I actually tried to buy side skirts from them, they were about as helpful as Recaro.

I'm going to have to search my files since its been a while that I got those things. I got the seat only for the track...(haven't done that yet)
