Hi,
I've got a 2010 E60 without the fold down rear seat option. LKQ has a bunch of these cars popping up and I've been considering swapping out the rear backrest with a fold down version and pulling the related parts.
Has anyone done this? Do I need to stick with an LCI donor vehicle? Any issues pulling the parts out and converting?
Thanks for the help everyone, appreciated.

Good to know, and in another thread someone provided this DIY video. Very helpful.
