Ventilated seat conversion kits available

Ventilated seat conversion kits are available in the German "Original BMW Teile und Zubehör 2003 BMW 5er-Reihe" catalogue from BMW. (Original BMW parts and accesories 2003 BMW 5-series)

On page 24 in the catalogue:
Active seat-ventilation
Eight fans in the seat area and back rest blow up to 80 litres of air per minute through the perforated seatcover: increase of comfort in summer through a pleasantly cool seat-temperature.

On page 8 in the separate price list:
Active seat-ventilation
5-series (E39)
Complete retrofit kit (only in leather Montana black)
- for standard seat 82 30 0 142 329 720.00 Euro
- for standard seat (with padding code F6)
82 30 0 142 328 720.00 Euro
- for sport seat 82 30 0 142 330 800.00 Euro

Retrofit kit, single
(On ordering the seat covers specify colour code)
- retrofit kit without seat cover
(for one seat; only together with new seat cover)
82 30 0 142 076 224.00 Euro
- seat cover standard seat 82 30 0 142 333 700.00 Euro
- seat cover standard seat (with padding code F6)
82 30 0 142 332 700.00 Euro

- seat cover for sport-seat 82 30 0 142 331 800.00 Euro


So if I´m not mistaken, it will cost 1024 Euro per seat + installation. If anyone does this conversion, let us know how it works, please.

The M5 seats aren't the same as the E39 5 series seats. I am not sure this would work.

The sports seats are the ones in the M5, I think. I´ll check if it is compatible with the seat heating.

oooooh, i would love to see how that turns out. does that mean that we would have to remove the fauxstrich (faux ostrich <-----my own made up name there) centers on our seats and replace them with some type of perforated leather?

Yowza. That would make summer here in the Not-too-Deep-but-Still-****-Hot'n'Sticky South much more pleasant.

Earnie, yes the middle leather section is perforated.

Chris, I´ll check about the X5

Pwilliams, Sweden is about as far north as Alaska, and it still gets hot in summer here...

Thanks David. The X5 uses the 3 series seats (if you get the std. seats), so if they have 'em available for the 3 series that would work for hte X5 as well.

Chris,

About the X5, it seems it will be available, but the people in Germany I talk with, don´t know when.
