You might want to post some messages on various BMW boards as I here some people that have the sport seats find them uncomfortable for their body size and are looking to switch. If you could find someone with same color and similar condition of seats, then you might have a deal. Otherwise you might check with some BMW dismantlers that deal in wrecked cars.

I hurt my back about 8 weeks ago, and have been doing physical therapy to get it back in shape. I have the standard heated driver seat in my car, and I have not been able to get the seat quite where I want it to stay comfortable.

It was time to do the oil light service and a bunch of nitpicky items so I took it into Allison, and they were kind enough to loan me a 323i with a sports seat. I have been driving it for a couple days now, and I can suddenly stay in the car seat for long periods.

Is there any way to replace my original drivers chair with either the comfort or sports seat, or something else? Where would I start looking for such a thing, (besides the dealer). Little puffy pillows and pads are not cuttiing it. Thanks. Mitchell
