How do you replace the seat cables on the BMW 3 Series?

Model: BMW Serie 3 E36 - Years 1990-2001
Part: Seat

In order to replace the cables that allow you to recline the seat of the BMW 3 Series, you need to loosen all the bolts that secure the seat at the bottom, so that it can be removed from the passenger compartment. In this way, it will be possible to unscrew the screws located at the base of the backrest and remove the levers on the sides of the backrest itself. In this way, it will be possible to detach the cover of the rear part of the backrest, in order to access the underlying components, including the aforementioned cables. These can then be extracted from inside the seat and replaced with new spare parts.
