A Planted Technology seat bracket for the BMW 2 Series coupe on the F22 chassis, 2014 onwards. Part number SB242.
We list more than one bracket against the F22, because BMW’s seat mounting on these cars overlaps with the wider SB120 family that runs from the E92 through the M2 and the M240i.
Send us the registration and we will tell you which part suits your exact car. That is a two minute job for us and it is the surest way to get it right first time.
What the car is
A short wheelbase rear wheel drive coupe, and in M235i and M240i form quick enough to be genuinely fast on a circuit for a fraction of what an M3 costs. That combination is why so many end up on track.
The seat
The standard sports seat is better than average and still lets you move once the car is loaded up. If you are fitting a harness bar or a cage, do the seat at the same time rather than afterwards, because a harness holding you to a seat that is itself shifting undoes much of the point.
Side airbags and occupancy sensing. Tell us the specification.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Top 5 reclining seat choices for your BMW 3 Series Coupe [E46], including our fitting guide, and Lexus Planted Technology Frames Updated For 2026. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the BMW 2 Series. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
