I'm mailing the damaged one I still have off to Kevin at Creative Options, and I'm just going to have him whip a set up for me. I bought something today and tried to make it work as a support, but it didn't really work out, so I'm just going to have someone who knows what they're doing make them for me, and be done with it.

glad I found this thread. I picked up some recaro's that are now in my e30 and I have never been able to ID their model. They are brand new, but 19 years old. They sat in a family friends basement for 17 years and he never installed them. I've had them in my m3 for two years. They are 100% brand new mint, look awesome in an e30.
The knob on the top of the seat back is a cushion adjuster. The very top of the back cusion tilts out in 3 different positions. Seats are soft, comfy, and just plain baller in my opinion. They are all black with very subtle red stitching, can barely even see it in the pics. I have two of them...that's one of my SRD's sitting next to it in the pic for comparison

OK here is the pics of MY fix it solution to the broken webbing on the bottom of my recaros
test fitting the rods. they were just about 1/4" too long
here it is installed
this is the diameter rod that i used
sorry it's a not the clearest pic
after making the webbing "mesh"
cut the rods to length so they span the seat. the front one slips under the seat pan tray. the rear one is held in by hog rings.
it works great and has a little bit of give, just like the stock seat does.Last edited by der affe; 12-07-2008, 09:26 PM.seien Sie größer, als Sie erscheinen

it works great!
the first incarnation we used too small of a rod so it just bent under my girth.
thus time it is perfect.
