Hello. First post from a new E46 owner here. I got my 2005 320CI convertible a couple of weeks ago and I’ve found the forum really useful, so thank you to everyone who posts questions and advice. There are a few things that I haven’t been able to work out yet so I thought I’d ask for some input...

My 2003 330CI vert was stored outside by the previous owner. As such, there is some damage to the interior faux leather and hard plastic surfaces.What can I do to help get it back closer to factory condition(if theres anything to be done that isn't 'replace everything' haha). There's also this...

I have a 325ci convertible with heated sport seats. I want to swap in red heated non-sport seats from another convertible into my car. Will I be able to directly swap them in and have everything working like heated seat function?

Hi, I am looking for the back seat back rest for a sedan in black genuine leather, non-split folding (no 60/40), like in the picture, for shipping to Quebec, Canada. Reach out to me if you have it and I'm sure we can agree on a price. Thanks!

Hey, I have an E46 325Cic with 200k miles on it. Leather seats are pretty worn: faded color, cracks, rips and very dirty; I’ll attach pictures. Any suggestions on good repair kits that get the color accurately? The interior color is NATURBRAUN Montana N6NG. Thanks!

So, my driver's seat has a massive tear in the seat bottom. Previous owner left this thing sitting in the sun for ages and the leather's hard as rock. After poking around a bit, I ordered replacement leather for both front seats from Lseat.com for about $400, and got a quote for installation for...

Hi all! Fairly new to the E46 world so go easy 🙈🙈 does anybody have any information on these types is seats? Iv never seen any with dual stitching on the seats any info would be great! Thanks Guys 😁

Hey guys, got a 2000 323Ci in the fall and am finally getting around to cleaning the driver's door. It's pretty dingy all over and wanted to know what parts are leather so I don't use the wrong cleaning products on them. Made a diagram to help specify the sections. Obviously A and E are not...

I am in the thick of a complete interior redo (it looks awesome, and I will post the story eventually). Next stage is replacing the leather on the seats and headrests. I don't want to do lseats.com (no chance it can be excellent at that price). I am in $2k already on the refresh, and I can...

Hey all, I've been trying to research swapping the leather from one front seat to the other, and couldn't find anything promising. I've had my M3 for a little bit now, and with 100k miles, and several previous owners the front driver's seat is quite worn. Thankfully there are no tears in the...

Fellow E46 Converts, The driver's seat leather in my 02 330ci vert is showing its age. I am wondering if there was ever an option offered in the US for cloth seats. If not, has anyone ever reupholstered with cloth? How did it turn out? Thank you.

Thought I'd throw up some pics of my current interior setup before I swap it out for OE CSL. Let me know what you guys think. If anyone else has Kiwi out there let's see what you got!

Today I re-wrapped the pads on the front and rear door handles. I went on eBay and found a scrap of Grey leather (it was really inexpensive). Turns out it was an exact color match for the BMW leather. So I made a couple of items for the car, but with the leftovers I decided to replace the...

The dash in my car started out as black molded vinyl, and it has done the trick for 11 years, but it just wasn't interesting to look at. I was recently in an auto upholstery class, So when my second Expansion tank decided to burst on the freeway, I felt the logical thing to do would be to park...

I caught a sale and got a Leatherique Rejuvenator and Prestine Clean package and used it on my seats and steering wheel this weekend. Thought I'd share my experiences with the community :) My car is 8 years old and I've never tried cleaning the seats other than just wiping down with a rag. It...

I am almost ashamed to post these pics but it needed to be done. I need to find the most cost effective way to get these seat up to par... they don't need to be perfect but I'd like to clean them and patch them up until I can save some cash for new leather. Help me e46-Fanatics you're my only...
