I know many folks have parts for many different models - does somebody have a manual tilting seat base for an E28 for the passenger side?

Regards
Drew
 
are you looking for a base e28 seat or the sport seat? i have an entire (bare) frame for an e30 m3 sport seat that has the tilting base + extending bottom bolster. i think it is the same as the e28 seat. if it is, i will have to verify whether it is passenger or drivers ... i think its passenger.
 
I'm trying to match a tilt mechanism from a manual base e28 seat. Maybe they are the same? The only adjustment is fore/aft and tilt. The tilt mechanism has a tall vertical lever on the tunnel side of the seat.
 
sorry Drew, i know the base that you are referring to ... and that is different than the e30 sport seat. i think these were also in late e23 cars too.
 
They are really rare in the US. Your best bet would be UK eBay, since you need one for a RHD car and the vast majority there are manual.
