F83 DIY Replace rear seat bottom leather

ajh77 · 08-19-2021, 10:40 AM

I purchased new OEM rear seat leather for the seat bottom of the back seat for my 2018 F83. Does anyone have a DIY on how to install? Thank you.

Check the coding/DIY section of this forum - maybe repost your request there.

I've had the back seat out in both my '16 M4 and my wife's '18 M3. Wasn't too hard if I recall, all you have to do is give it a really good pull. You can find posts or videos that show how to do this. Once the seat is out, it seems like it would be pretty easy to just take off the old leather and put on the new leather. Or take it to an upholstery shop if you don't feel comfortable doing that.
