    Recaro LS-B - Very clean - Perfect for E30 - No Longer Available

    Recaro LS-B - Very clean - Perfect for E30

    EDIT: Willing to ship anywhere in the continental US for $125 through Fed-Ex or UPS.

    Selling a set of Recaro LS-B seats in very nice condition. Technically, these are original to select VW MK2 16v cars from '89 to '92. The most wonderful seats I've ever sat in, hold you in firmly, but not so tight that they're uncomfortable for a daily and hard to get in or out of. Trust me, I have a set of black leather E30 M3 seats and these are in a different league. Lighter weight, too.

    Pictures detail any flaws. There are few small burns and some wear on the driver's outer bolster/piping. They do tend to "auto recline" as they all do, new bushings under the recline knob fixes that. Most people find garden hose rubber washers do the trick. The bottom cushion support webbing on the driver's seat is homemade with burlap, utilizing the original wire rods. Came out well, works well. New OEM Recaro webbing can be bought from the UK for $100 each. Maybe 8/10 condition, these seats are not easy to find this clean these days. I spend a lot of time in the VW forums, I have a pretty solid gauge on these.

    These are the big bolster, power tilt versions which mean they utilize the standard 6 bolt Recaro mounting system. In other words, any adapters you might use to mount aftermarket Recaros in a BMW will work with these seats. The VW power seat bases are available separately, but they likely aren't going to do BMW guys any good.

    Price is $550 cash.

    Located in southeast PA. Prefer local pickup, but willing to drive a little to meet up. Trying not to ship at the moment. Thanks!

      Did these come out of a black 92 16v GLI? They have the exact same wear spots and marks as my old car.

        I've had them for years, before that they were in a Cabriolet that was parted. Obviously a non-original application and I don't know the history before that. Many sets show common wear areas, but perhaps!

          Willing to ship anywhere in the contiguous 48 states for $125. Will disassemble and box them up. If shipping is more than $125, I'll eat the extra cost. If it's less, I'll refund you the money!

                    What type of mounting HW or modification do these require?

                      If you want to retain the ability to slide the seat fore/aft, Massive makes an awesome setup that allow you to retain the factory E30 sliders here: http://www.massivebrakes.com/accesso..._RecaroAdapter

                      Other companies make Recaro brackets that will bolt Recaro seats to the floor, but you loose the sliding function.

                      Or you could fabricate your own solution.
