You need to search in Wiki (at the top of the Bimmerfest page).

Directly under the word "Bimmerfest" at the top of the internet page for this site is a bar with the work "Home" at the left. If you look all the way to the right, you will see the word "Wiki". Click on that & you will find a wealth of info. Under E39 you will find answers to your seat problem under "power seats".
