We'd love to see how they fit... in the S we seem to hit door cars no matter what.

Thanks!
I am interested in a Jersey red set and rails if they will fit. Would love to know how much we are talking price wise.

Any provision for seat belt receptacle? How low will this setup be compared to stock?

Dear Sakebomb garage:

It has been 4 months since this topic was brought up by you.
Can we get an update as to whether this is going to happen or should we go ahead and independently acquire these seats’s elsewhere?

thank you

<br />BrainSrgn<br />Half the issue here is that these seats are made in Recaros US plant which has been moving / retooling for the last few months. We inquired about production times again, and the dismissive response we got was: Normally these are 4-8 weeks production time, but due to the changes here we are not making any production time guarantees or delivery date estimates. Basically, no one in the US has them and currently until the factory is sorted back out, can not get them. We can sell seats and place orders however they're essentially on hold while they re-structure. <br /><br /><br />As far as our parts to make the seats work, with tilt feature, etc. it's in development. But while Recaro is getting back up to speed we'd rather cross our T's and dot our I's vs try to whip something out for seats that are in limbo. For anyone wanting to DIY a setup or see what they can find elsewhere by all means, but this thread exists because there are no good options out there with the features that people want/need. <br /><br />What does everyone else think?<br />

Thats annoying... not on your part.... but I've had some Jersey Red Pole Positions on order for almost two months.. and in early april, was told "3 weeks". The vendor had been told 10-12 weeks in late march.... but now to see that they are "on hold" is kind of irritating. I cant even cancel my order at this point.

Did you get any updates so far? This is partially why we're dragging our feet... we need to be able to provide SEATS along with the rails that fit them No use having a cool tilt feature on an awesome seat bracket, if you're sitting on an upside down home depot orange bucket in your driveway
