A Planted Technology seat bracket for the BMW 6 Series coupe on the F13 chassis, 2011 to 2018. Part number SB390.
The E24 6 Series takes SB091 and is a completely different car from thirty years earlier.
The M6 with the S63
Twin turbo V8, around 560 horsepower, in a car weighing close to two tonnes. It is a grand tourer that happens to be extremely fast rather than a sports car, and it is worth being honest about that when choosing a seat.
BMW also built the F12 convertible and the F06 Gran Coupe on this generation. They share a great deal but the seat area is worth checking rather than assuming, so send us the registration.
What you gain
Not weight. In a two tonne car a steel framed shell will not register. What changes is that you stop sliding about, which on an M6 happens sooner than the plush interior suggests.
The electronics
Powered adjustment in several planes, memory, heating, side airbags, occupancy sensing, and active bolsters on some. 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 car-specific, so match the vehicle in the product name to your exact car and generation. If you are unsure, 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.
