Given that the MKII V6 uses the same seats as the 182 would anyone know if these would retro fit onto a V6??

 

[harv172]

if you order these through reno what colour will they be ?? is the pic shown the actual colour they are cos they wouldnt really look right in a 182 cup as they wouldnt match the back seats ?

If you look at the 182 options via the link above it says that the rears will be supplied as Graphic Night with no headrests when ordering the Recaro Pack, which I assume will match up with the fronts.

cant see why not - as you say the Vee is identical to the 182 in this respect. They will be very expensive though - you may want to consider other seats which can be personalised to match the interior colours on the V6.

I think Jeremy posted that they arent as the centre console prevents them fitting.

Angle Grinder?

That was my thought, because as all MK2 owners know, for those of us who are a bit taller, the seat recliner rubs on the centre section which is damn annoying. Oh well, I just figured that the style of the seat was pretty well in keeping with what Im looking for. Oh well, start looking again.

Thats the colour they come in, so yes, the rear seat will not match

 

[Ian_182]

I agree that its a shame that they arnt available/ or wont fit in the V6. I guess renault give you crap back seats with the recaro option as its intended for track use/hard drivers car (cup) and not luxury?

 

[telford_mike]

Doesnt really matter to be honest, there are lots of aftermarket seats around if you want to fit them. Round of applause for Renault for giving 182 owners the option to have them fitted at the factory. The rest of us can still choose from a huge range of aftermarket seats though.
