I recall seeing somewhere that BMW E-46 seats would fit well. Has anyone done this and how much mod was needed? Also seeing some black leather G8 seats reasonable. If you have done this or know of other cars with nice donor seats I would appreciate the info.

I would suggest introducing yourself/project in the introductions page and using the search feature before asking for advice. I'm no authority by any means but I think your question will be received better if you do.

Ok, I will do that. I did use the search feature and turned up lots of info though not much pertaining to these particular seats. Though this is my first post I have registered here some time ago and enjoy the info in this forum.

I used E46 M3 convertible seats in my 69 with no mods required on the car I did have to remove the plastic covers from the sides of the new sets because it made them too wide. They fit perfectly and are very comfortable...*BONUS* With convertible seats you get built in 3 point seat belts, no need for retrofits
