SPEED ENGINEERING 16825.1 Side Adapter for Seat Rail Recaro Pole Position / Recaro Podium (Driver's Side) for BMW 1/2/3 Series/M2/M3/M4/Z4 (Gx/Fx/E8x/E9x)

Description SPEED ENGINEERING 16825.1 Side Adapter for Seat Rail Recaro Pole Position / Recaro Podium (Driver's Side) for BMW 1/2/3 Series/M2/M3/M4/Z4 (Gx/Fx/E8x/E9x)

The SPEED ENGINEERING 16825.1 Side Adapter for Seat Rail is designed for the driver side of BMW 1 Series, 2 Series, 3 Series, M240i, M340i, M440i, M2, M3, M4, and Z4 models from the Gx, Fx, E8x, and E9x platforms. It allows Recaro Pole Position or Recaro Podium seats to be fitted to the original mechanical seat rail of a BMW F Series vehicle.

The seat mounting is a safety-critical component developed with FEM simulation to support safety and weight optimisation. It provides the lowest possible seating position while keeping the seat centred in front of the steering wheel. Component cut-outs and shapes are based on calculated and simulated stress distribution under load, while the installation space is measured beforehand using a 3D laser scanner.

Electric Seat Rail Note: For electric seat rails, a separate version with its own seat console is available under item 13211, and an additional electric motor control kit is available under item 13855.

Coding Note: Seat and airbag coding is currently possible only for F Series vehicles and is required only if the seats or belts are changed.

Registration Note: Registration of the seat console, including the seats, is possible only for vehicles up to model year 2024. Later vehicles require the complete seat console.

Registration Requirement: Individual approval under Section 21 by TÜV is required.

Road Use: Motorsport products are not automatically approved for road use under German road traffic regulations.

Installation Note: Installation can be booked through optional items. Workshop installation and registration appointments can be arranged by email.

Registration Fee Note: The flat-rate TÜV registration fee is charged only once when driver- and passenger-side sets are ordered together.
