technical Can I fit bmw seats in my Amarok?

[Marco-Swanepoel]

Hi Guys

So my other car is an Amarok V6 bakkie brand new, I went with the Hiline spec and not the Extreme so I don't have electric seats but they are heated so they do have power

I'd like to change the seats to F15 X5 seats, how does these seats work? Do they just need power and all the electronics and memory works? Or does it need the original BMW computer box?

You can also just put an Amarok badge on your X5 and call it a day..

Another option would be to angle grind the back section of your X5 and turn it into a bakie, that would be unique and cool!

You should also ditch that poverty spec engine and put a 2JZ in.

yes, 100% fit, you just need a 10mm spanner and some WD40.

That's the rookie method, we pros can do it with a toothpick and a used chappie.

Take your reasonable suggestions and get outttta here!

I do not think you will get the electrical part of the seats working... Not easily or cheaply at least.
Even if the Amarok had electric seats, doubt they'd be compatible.

Rather look at finding electric Amarok seats and whatever else is needed to retrofit the electric seats.

Campmaster has a good selection as well. Maybe a couple of those and a portable gas heater?

How bad are the seats in the Amarok that you are even contemplating changing to seats from a different car manufacturer altogether?

Just make the Amarok a 7-seater while you're at it.

No man, this is clearly the standard and not the heated option.
