Recaro Option in 182

[Simo]

Has anybody got a 182 with the Recaros in yet?

Looking at getting the Wife a 182 for her Birthday, saw the Recaro option in the Renaultsport brochure, just wondered if anyone had them.

Pics please.

[Simo]

?

So you can specify them, but dont ask to see them........

The words p1ss up and brewery spring to mind.

Oh, and you cant order them yet!

Not til mid Feb iirc?

They are just plain black "recaro trendline" according to Jeremy iirc?

 

[182_blue]

Oh and by having them, you loose the split fold rear seats and headrests, you get the "cup" 1 piece bench instead with no headrests.

 

[182_blue]

not worth it in my opinion, better of getting normal ones and putting your own in afterwards, you can then also sell the normal 182 ones to help towards the cost

Youll be able to order them mid-Feb for delivery from March

Jeremy................are they identical to those shown in the pic above yeah?

And would they be a straight fit into a V6?

Cheers Stu

PS any prices for an aftersale buy?

 

[CocoPops]

The seats are EXACTLY the same as the aftermarket offering from recaro.

Its probably cheaper to buy them direct from recaro or an aftermarket reseller than from Renault for a retrofit?

The wiring loom modification would deffo be worth buying from renault to prevent the airbag light illuminating etc.

I love them seats!!! i want i want i want lol

 

[stusV6]

Oh yeah I forgot about the airbag!

Cheers Stu

They will not fit a V6 as they rub on the centre console
