Recaros into a 172?

[Rs-172-cup]

Had a search but couldnt find much!

Just bought myself recaros froma megane i think and was wondering if the seat runners are the same or do i need to modify a bit? Thanks

Megane sub frames won't fit in a clio.

Sorry meant do clio subframes bolt onto the recaros?

Yes, standard clio runners bolt to the recaro subframe. Needs to be the correct clio specific subframe though.

I Welded mondeo runners and bolted to the floor
Still fully adjustable

Those look very at home in there nick c, but looks a bit weird having the seatbelt catch on the outside of the car, lol.

Thought you may notice that and on the wrong side too
Drivers seat on the left hand side of the car
Only use it on track and with harnesses
The seats were originally in a mk1 mondeo so its a long boring story to why that ended up A the wrong way round and B ended up in the Clio

They're very nice seats.

Sportsters have to be the best looking seats around.


Im going to be so let down if my next car doesn't have them

Definitely the best looking, comfort wise I find the Speed / Pro Fi / Pole Positions much much better. But then, I'm a lanky prick.
