Recaro seats - can I swap from Trendline to fixed easily?

Basically I've got a pair of electric Recaro Trendlines in my 172 Cup and I fancy swapping them, or selling them and buying a pair of fixed bucket Recaros instead.

As I'm presuming the subframes, etc have been changed to accept the trendlines, would these fit any other Recaros or if I got new fixed buckets, would I need the specific runners and frames for these?

I think you would need to buy specific frames for a 172/bucket combi.
As you stated these ones are probably specific for the trendlines...

If you sell them how much are you looking for mate?

The Trendlines will have clio>Recaro bottom mounted subframe.

Any decent buckets will need side mounts, then side mount > floor subframes.

Then sliders in between the side mounts/floor subframes if needed.

haha, loads of people have asked me this! Id only sell so I could do a straight swap over to some decent looking fixed seats (so I guess all the components I'd need would cost a bit).
