Looking for a junkyard for parts for my 88 740gle. Where are some good junkyards around the Holliston area (Drving distances for good parts is not a prob).

The main thing that i need are a black manual leather seat w/heater. So, If someone has one in excellent condition, I would be interested. Mine needs rebuilding, but the IPD kit isn't exactly cheap.

Secondly, Where is a good place to get a new set of 20 lug nuts for my car?

THANKS
mike

Saw the lugnuts on E-Bay just recently ($20.00). The black 740 seats were in one the classifieds, either here or IPDUSA.com free classifieds, possibly E-bay......most 740 seats I see in the junkyards are pretty bad.

Agree that most junkyard seats are pretty bad but usually the passenger seat is better. The cushions are the same R/L so you can get a decent passenger side cushion by just releasing it from the front and rear seat bars. (no need to undo the springs) and put it on the drivers seat. For the backrest you can pull the cover off a decent passenger side seat but the hole for the lumbar support will have to be cut on the other side .
You can cover the wrong hole with a piece of black leather cut from a bad seat in the yard.
