FYI those reading in future these ended up selling (at just below my asking price to account for fix).  It was full disclosure buyer knew everything and needed the set for their project.  They needed it when I was selling, right place right time right price everybody’s happy

that's common. its a design flaw. see my post below from my thread.

Thanks for the picture would have saved me about an hour figuring out what was going on if I'd had that over the weekend.  Anyway the seat was bugging me being inoperable and selling like that so I've taken it completely apart down to the frame and discovered the frame is cracked just above the tube that goes through the seat.  I'll weld it back up straight or find a new seat bottom and make the seat whole and the set whole before I part with anything.  
 
So Mods can you please take this ad down.  I will not be selling a seat in this condition and don't want to deal with selling pieces at this point.
 

No worries, that’s what  I’m seeing on national CL and EBay for just seats if not higher.  With all four door cards, handles switches and full set of seat belts I think it’s a fair deal especially for black.  Someone finds a better price by all means they are welcome to it.  I think this is more than fair and plus side doesn’t take up much shop space if I’m holding onto it.  

I'm on the west side Hilldale neighborhood near the Target.  Let me know!  Part search is off an running!  Just picked up some sport seats from Chicago, will need to be recovered and looks like the mechanism refreshed/fixed and a roof rack from Minneapolis shortly.  Let me me know always down to help and learn something! 

PSA!!  Will say loud and clear to anyone who asks DO NOT do business with a dude out of Detroit that runs "BMW Rescue"!  First complete a$$ on the phone immediately, when he states phone only red flag one. Second posts conflicting prices on craigslist, his "site", and ebay and then gets quite upset when you tell him you'll pay the lowest one you see red flag two.  Third he nukes a deal on sport seats (yes I was gonna drive 7hrs each way (never seen Detroit so two birds one stone) over $30 and then demands I not only pay the "discounted" price but also GIVE him my original comfort seats and he is keeping the headrests and three strikes your out.  WTF.  STAY AWAY!
Good news is I saved 8 hours and probably $200 bad news still haven't seen Detroit.  

Checked his site out. Appears to have stuff way overpriced. My prices are better then that. 😂

Hi everyone,
Found this site searching the internet for project ideas and fixes for my new e30.  Bought an admittedly big project, 1991 325ix 4dr stick sterling silver/red  but couldn't stand to see it parted out or crushed so starting the journey this spring.  It runs and drives interior is mostly good shape but has some structural issues (that four letter word RUST) that'll keep it sidelined until I address them when it's warmer out.  Its not my first foray into e30s but its my first one on purpose.  I learned to drive stick more then a few years back on a mid 80s 318is? Honestly all I really remember it was black, recaro seats, 2 drs, and the clutch was crap (not a good car to learn on AT ALL lol) but it was the most fun drive and I've regretted letting it get sold to this day.    I'm building a list of items to fix and upgrade on the car while its in storage till spring my big item I'm researching right now is upgrading headlights (thats actually what I was looking for when I found this site through a member's post in r3vlimited) so anyone with insight/experience its definitely welcomed.
Thanks
ps always down to help out others on projects especially in the Madison area its how I learn best so whether its holding a flashlight or something more let me know.
