Hi newbie here, I have just purchased a E60 530D M Sport 2007 in carbon black with all the whistles and bells, however I have seen some E60's have a split folding rear seat option, is is possible to retro fit it to a non split rear seat?
TIA
Lee.

Any thing is possible, How much money do you got, it can be very expensive to retrofit factory installed options

I dont think that you can retrofit this, I do not have folding seats and I had the same idea of maybe retrofitting. I discovered that there is a metal panel behind the seats that cannot easily be removed, that put me off but maybe someone else knows different.

I have them, and they don't look at all like the ones that don't from the rear. As said above, anything's possible but the cost would be silly, I would have thought.
