Late e12 power seats?

Post by Jmas »

Hoping someone can advise. Purchased a 81 e12 and had from what I can tell a e30 center console with seat adjustment controls wired in. To my knowledge e12s didn’t come with this option, but e12s are still new to me. Need to pull out the carpet to know if added by PO.

I was thinking the shifter ended at the e12 console then carpet until the e-brake boot - Can anyone confirm?

Yes, that sounds correct. I had an E12 with E28 power seats installed (poorly) and an E28 supplemental (?) rear console with the seat switches. But to the best of my knowledge no E12s had power seats. E28 power seats will bolt up to 80-81 on both sides or 79 and earlier drivers side only.
