Rover 75 modified seats to fit Z3

25 Jul 2015, 12:49pm
Hi,

I have spent a huge amount of time and effort adjusting a lovely set of Rover 75 Electric and heated seats to fit my Z3 for my SWB Tribute build. I am gutted to be selling them as the look the business, only problem is that when they are in the car the base of the seat is so thick and comfortable that I am sitting too high in the driving position (I am 5'11" with little legs). So they have to go and I will keep the MSport seats.

Seats are in a excellent condition with slight creasing on the now passenger seat, there are no rips or tears or holes and there is no scuffing where people get in and out of the car, really they are in excellent order.

All the electrics are ready to be connected to the exisiting Z3 wiring under the seat and the buyer will be given the instructions on how to wire up. Also 4 new mounting holes will need to be drilled in the floor pan to fit.

I have adapted the controls and they are all there under the seat. The electrics are in full working order. The now passenger seat also has 3 memory positions and a tilt setting too!

The holes in the leather down one side of the seats are on the centre console side and are hidden

I am gutted that these have to go, and now need the space for the main build.

Seats I would say are for someone upto 5' 9" in height or with long legs!

I'm open to offers or swap for 2 x new Lucas L576 lamps. Collection only from Milton Keynes address. PM me for any further details.

Hi Wolfie, nice to chat with you on the forum, I'm happy to send you the wiring, however please note that these seats don't just fit in and there is some significant work needed to modify them including some metal work. It's a shame you have bought some as all the hard work is done on these ones. :icon_frown:
