Recaro Pole positions in V6 (finally)

[ColinG]

Just got them in and adjusted to the right angle on the sidemounts, got the resisters on so no air bag lights etc..

I AM ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE!!! however..they will be coming out again in a month or so..to have the frames modified so they sit approx 2" lower..

sorry for the crap pics..it was dark outside so had to do my best in the garage

even though ive just got out of them..still feels like im in them....they really are uber uber comfy!

 

[Mikey]

[ColinG]

featherweight..im sure they are 6kgs each, all I know is the pallet from recaro with the 2 seats in a huge box on a pallet..was lighter than 1 original seat! :S

They are mounted on genuine recaro subframes, the quality of these is astounding, everything fits and looks as per OEM

The mat was immaculate..before it started raining..lol

 

[Giles]

nice :approve:

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

nice ditch the stock steering wheel now for something that matches the seats a little better (only my own personal opinion)

 

[mini-valver]

LOVE them! Do you mind me asking how much they were including the subframes?

Black gold 255 too..........b*****d

 

[Rich]

Awesome. Sidemounts would look better in Black though.

 

[ColinG]

They came to £1172 all in

got them from capital...and they took 8 weeks!! worth it though!

now im fooking skint though lol, be missing out on all the drunken nights out with mates for a while lol..ah well! summers here...i'll find some good B roads!

 

[Donz144]

SWEEEET...harnesses?

 

[PS autoshine]

funky

 

[ColinG]

didnt want harnesses...its not a track car

rich..i also thought that at first...was tempted to spray em black/gold to match the trim...they are growing on me in silver now though...???

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Mmmmmmmm niceeeeeee . Agree with rich tho' , the sidemounts would look better in black with white writing .

 

[mini-valver]

£1172 is some serious wonga! May have to call on Mr.Interest free in the not too distant

 

[Jay Payne]

very nice

 

[ColinG]

nearly got trendlines brand new for roughly the same price...glad i didnt..these are in a totally different league

they are slightly cheaper in just cloth though

 

[Bjorn]

Not bad them, carpet could do with a hoover though

 

[mini-valver]

I prefer fixed back TBH mate, No other seats look like these though in terms of shape and comfort.....

 

[Adamhodg]

They look awesome mate!

 

[Gareth]

A W E S O M E, love it

 

[ColinG]

I prefer fixed back TBH mate, No other seats look like these though in terms of shape and comfort.....

See, I have always hated fixed seats with a passion..

but...having seen the cars that these seats are OEM in... ranging from the TT 240 sport, to the new callaway corvette, merc CLK AMG black series, even the porsche 996 GT3 with modified upper halfs..I was convinced

 

[dRUM]

I think they look awesome mate, ive a black 172, and I could just see a set of those nicely nestled! Mind you can't see her indoors agreeing!!:dapprove:

I know exactly what you mean, long drives etc but High end cars with these standard can't mean an uncomfy ride! Never really 'got' reclining buckets though, seem abit pointless, lol

 

[R20 CWH]

looks tasty

 

[Christopher]

stunning!!

glad you finally got them in Colin!

 

[DanCup]

Stunning!!!

 

[JR]

stunning seats

 

[Tyson-182]

Awesome mate. The silver mounts kinda match the seat belts so i'd leave them! Enjoy!

Tys.

 

[ColinG]

going for my first fast drive later..so will see how I get along..

I cant wait!

decided to order the cobra x-low frames next month!

 

[Christopher]

call round at my place on the way, we can exchange V5's there and then. It would save on postage/paperwork etc.

 

[Phill1978]

looks mint, i know someone didnt like subframes but they look military mate. all looks perfect ! DTM type seats. and the trim fits wit alcantara.

love it !

 

[Darren S]

They look great Colin - and the silver supports suit it perfectly.

They would however, look far better in a Scotia White Evo VI.....:rasp:

[Tom]

Wicked seats, so so so comfortable.

Dad had these in an old 911 he once had.
