Where to purchase used OEM interior parts?

MaX PL · 12-30-2017, 04:11 PM

I'm looking to replace the plastic shells on the back of my front seats. They're $388 each new and I'd like to find something OEM cheaper if possible.

What would be the best way for me to go about finding these used somewhere?

eBay, Amazon ?

MannyS · 12-30-2017, 05:42 PM

cheap way out is to have the shells covered in vinyl by a trim shop

Junk Yard, auto dismantling - plenty around.

Some members here might have some lying around. They’ve replaced them with carbon fiber ones. Hopefully they chime in.

I thought the carbon ones were stick over the top shells rather than oem replacements?

Not these

Or these

http://www.eventuri.net/products/f8x-seat-back-covers/

Stick over and adhere with tape

I'm referring to these shells as center trim is not sold separately at dealer:

Having contact with a number of these types of businesses having looked for some replacement F8x seat parts on car-Parts.com , unless the leather and padding has serious damage and the frame is twisted beyond repair, most will try to sell the entire seat and not part out it’s pieces.

Which CF ones did you get? Most of the ones I’ve seen for a ZCP are shell covers and not a complete replacement.

Oh... Yeah I just looked up the install for them and they're just covers. They're from EAS. Sorry OP!

Doh! Look on the bright side, at least you didn't sell something you needed.
