VR6gaz 0 Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Im after 2 front seats cos i think sold my colour conceptsI like the Rover recaros from the 620ti and the 820 turbo and can pick them up for a pitancebut will they fit? Can anyone think of anything else that will fit (RS Turbo recaros?) how hard are porsche seats to fit? ideally i want a cheap set that i can have retrimmed so id love to hear any suggestions youve gotHeres a pic of the rover seats Link to post Share on other sites
philbatesvr6 0 Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 any thin can be made to fit mate lol you will need the base part of some gti or vr6 seats as the normal mk3 seats are built into the seat base its self , then its just a matter of welding the recaros to the base Link to post Share on other sites

Focker-out 0 Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 You may tell me where to go here, but if they are being re trimmed, try and find early vr6/gti cloth recaros, far nicer seats to sit in than the rover ones, and they will be a straight fit.No way id spend money trimming the rover seats, they just dont have the support of the mk3 recaros and IMO will never look right inside the car, i feel the same about the Ford RST seats too Link to post Share on other sites

philbatesvr6 0 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 id stick some cossie ones in imo they are more supportive than the mk3 ones and they are a common seat i sold a mint set of black leather ones not so long ago for £180 i was going to put them into mine but i couldnt find any gti bases for em and i was low on funds so i sold em Link to post Share on other sites
