Recaro Sportster GT seats in FC

So I went ahead and made the purchase for two new seats to the FC.
I didn’t go cheap like some with just up grading the driver side I am replacing both of them as my OCD won’t allow me to purchase just one seat.
I went with leather.
What are your thoughts on the seat? Does anybody else have these seats in their car?

Well do! I think they will match up well with black interior!

I ordered planted seat brackets to make this work.
FYI, there is a waiting period involved In ordering planted seat brackets. They have to fabricate them for you as they do not have anymore inventory for our cars. 2 weeks I’m told.

Here is a cool vid showing the Recaro Sportster GT seats in depth.

Nice.. let us know how it goes.!

I installed the Corbeau A4 many years ago (+15) and they have faded and become a little worn.

Can you take good pictures of the mounting brackets and the seat attachment to the brackets please.
