Question Comfort seats - truffle brown (LCTE)

Hi guys, I have e60 545i(2004) with comfort seats in truffle brown (LCTE) colour.I only have heated seats, and I would like to have also ventilated and massage options but I donīt know if these option were availible with this colour. So thatīs basically my question if I can get seats in my colour with these options. If yes could you please tell me where can I buy them? I have been looking for them for quite some time but I didnīt find any.
Thank you in advance

You're talking about a car that's approaching 20 years old now, so the only way you're going to get the part you need is off of another car. To my knowledge, ventilated seats did not become available as an option on the 5 Series until the F10.

You can get ventilated seats (I retrofitted them) but I'm unaware of any massaging options. I got E60 M5 seats off Craigslist that are ventilated and have the active backrest width adjustment where the side bolster pushes against you when you go around corners. The ventilation does next to nothing. I think it keeps my back from getting as sweaty on a hot day but it doesn't make me feel any cooler. The best part of the upgrade for me is they have Nasca leather which is much much softer than the original Dakota leather I had previously. If you find ventilated seats without the backrest width adjustment you just need to get new center console switches to turn on the ventilation and it's plug and play. If you get the seats with active backrest width adjustment you will need to run 3 wires to each seat otherwise you won't be able to adjust your backrest width at all as they are controlled by separate modules in those seats and those modules are on the PT can network instead of the k can or whatever it's called.
