Looking to buy a right hand seat for '01 FD. Seller must be able to ship to Estonia - please verify the shipping price with the item price.
Attached an image of the left existing seat - would be nice if it was the same OEM style as the one shown there, but its okay if it isnt.

Do you need the rail? Would make a big difference on shipping cost.

If it makes a weirdly big difference, then nope - those could probably be easier to find on ebay that would fit with the OEM seat with lower shipping costs.

Yeah. The rails add a lot of weight and make he packaging more bulky.

I have a mint 99 S8 base passenger (left side) seat, in the black weave fabric I believe you are looking for. No rail.

C$500 before shipping.

If that is close we could look into the shipping cost by Canada post and what forms would be needed.

Import procedures on your end would be your risk.


Please PM me your address with Postal Code.
I'd be interested in trading for the Bathurst R CF plastics (I see in your picture).

BC Wrong side.

Sorry I read your post wrong. What i have is the left seat, not the right seat.

I may have a right seat in the basic JDM velour in the "off-black" colour.

Yeah looking for the right seat (jdm driver side). Sorry should've been a bit more clear perhaps in the ad. Looking to match the current seat with the OEM one, since the bucket seat in mine is not road legal in Estonia...

I'd maybe wait a bit to try to find an exact match first

Those seats may be as rare as Red Recaros.

Which model FD do you have? Post up a description on the RHD FD Nation thread.

I see many cars on sale around with the same seats, but no one is really parting them out and seems like OEM seats in good condition are really difficult to come by..

The car is the very one in the picture - a 2001 type r bathurst r. previous owner has replaced the seat with the bucket one and thus I am now looking for the OEM one once again

BC Back to Basics

Hmm. Surprised the Bathurst R came with the "base" seats.

Awesome, sent him an email. thanks for the tip I'm just beginning to understand how difficult it can become with some parts in some random corner of Europe with this car. But its a price to pay if you're one of the only owners in the country

On the otherhand, random and rare bits might float up in your local. Put them up for sale when you find some.
