Believe the Modus/Micra and Clio 3 are similar......

 

[Mickb]

if the subframes are totally dif then your option would be to make them fit the 182s

I know u can if you buy the right subframes from recaro at 180 notes but I wondered if the 197 subframe is any different to the vee.

Sportster cs's.

 

[howie p]

pricey!!

 

[Christopher]

Of course they'll fit!

There's a guy with them in his Mk2 V6... with the same mounting points!

You'll just need Recaro's Mk2 subframes.

The seats are called Sportster CS

I thought 197 seats were Recaro's??

OE 197 seats aren't. But the optional items are.

In fact, Recaro (and others) make seating for a lot more cars than you think, they just don't brand them all the time.

 

[Big Iain]

aye f**k that glad I nver bid for them, nearly 20 notes fo the proper subframes, all that for them to wear by the end of next week.

Had them in my Fiat coupe 20vt plus, best seats my backside has ever graced They weren't branded either. Only the borchure said Recaro in it.
