Default My new seats

After buying 6 pot calipers and discs,Facelift front and rear lights and facelift center console plus radio cover. I decided to treat myself again to some very nice recaros with s2000 rails. Just getting stuck into cleaning them with some G101 will bring them up like new
Fitting will be tights but very doable with some adjustments to the rails but pretty straight forward. Big thanks to Dave_S2k For selling them to me and meeting me halfway even though i got lost

I'm sure there is a few threads on here showing you how it's done. I have seen some DC5 Recaros in an S before and those seats are virtually the same.

Probably, £350-£400 (rails could be included for that price but they were off an integra then adapted for use in my 1.4 Civic, so I'm not sure they would work! )

I would put them in the S but I want fixed back buckets when I upgrade.

If they fit without surgery to the seats/car I'll be surprised.
