Recaro covers on Corbeau GTS?
The stock seats in my '76 are getting pretty darn uncomfortable. My recent upgrade to (much) stiffer suspension means I now feel the frame through the well-compressed padding pretty much all the time. The blue vinyl is pretty brittle too. New padding and covers for the fronts seats gets pretty spendy pretty quickly. So, I might as well just get new (or new to me) seats. The only (ha!) requirements are that they be affordable, not garbage, and fit the style of the car. I love the way the interior of the 2002 looks, and want to find something that will (at least eventually) look like it belongs there. E21 Recaros are obviously awesome, but affordable and plentiful they are not. I saw some used 9C3s available not too far from me, but they look like they have zero bolstering. By the time I get new foam and covers, we're right back up to e21 money. The Corbeau GTSII seats look like a good deal. They're clearly modeled on the Recaro classic design, but they're <$800/pair. The only problem is they don't come in blue. It wouldn't have to happen right away, but has anyone ever re-covered Corbeaus? What about with one of the many cover kits available for Recaros? (I know it's a long shot that they'd fit, but a man can dream.)

73 Fuse Box in a 72
Hey everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster. My name is Anthony, I'm in the process of bringing a 1972 2002 back to life. A big part of this has been undoing the previous (who was also the original) owner's less than stellar wiring work on the car. My fusebox had a broken spade for the power input, and I recently purchased a new used one to replace it with. However, I now realize that I bought the wrong one, which came off a 1973. I am assuming that everything will be fine as long as I run everything in accordance with a 73' diagram, but I just wanted to get some confirmation from the forum before I go to the effort. Thanks in advance for any input!

BayArea 02 Swap & Show 2019 on 4 May
05/04/2019
BayArea 02 Swap & Show, 4 May 2019, Marina at Brisbane, California. The address is: 500 Sierra Point Parkway-- along the Bay on the North side of Sierra Point. Preregister on Motorsportreg (see below). Preregistration is $25 while the on-site fee on 4 May will be $30. Graphic artist Kile Brekke has again added his art to our T-shirts and printed materials; we think you will be delighted with his design! Please preregister early to help us plan for the best number of each shirt size. We will have a named bag for each preregistrant so our closing date is slightly earlier than some years to help us organize the bags. Note— Swap & Show visitors are welcome! There is no fee for entry if you do not show your car or swap parts. However, we encourage anyone with a BMW of our vintage to bring your car to display, no matter how mundane your daily driver (dirt, rust and all) or how beautiful your restoration. Swap & Show does not judge your car so there will be no points for extra dirt, missing dirt, matching luggage or concours glow. We smile at all BMW's and photographs or videos are welcome (but NO drones over cars)! Preregistration is now open, until Tuesday, 30 April. Go to [Preregister for Swap & Show 2019].
