        Im going to look at some Recaro SRD seats, how can I tell if they are genuine Recaros VS the million chinese reps out there. They've been recovered in black leather

          Found the five sided knobs are still available thru the dealer. Like $25 from BluntTech.

          And I know Dave from Aardvark. Good guy, and helpful with info.

                the recline knob for the passenger side, and whatever is needed to fix the creep issue. I'm away for work (as usual) and I haven't taken them apart so I don't know how involved it is to fix the issue.

                  If you can get some pics that would be helpful.

                      What better place than this thread to ask a simple question to people who have fitted Massive's Recaro adapters. Since the day I designed them I had that hitch to add some adjustability to them, simply because we all have different tastes/preferences when it comes to driving position. Currently, the adapters have a 4° rake to add comfort and lumbar support. If they were flat, the driving position would be awefull.

                      Now, I can modify the adapters to offer two adjustable positions. Current 4° rake would stay, and they could be adjusted for another 2°. Basically slightly raising your knees. Yup. Two mounting holes at the front.

                      Or is there really any need to modify the original design? Please let me know.

                            Are Recaro LSs going to be better than Sport seats for someone with a quite slim/slight build? 30" waist.

                            Did Recaro LSBs come in different widths, for different markets perhaps, or change between generations?

                                there is more than one generation LS...but that being said, an LS will fit a slim build much better than an oe sport seat..


                                the first and second gen LS I feel were the most aggressive re fit..and hard to find...and $$$$$$


                                but at 30" it will be hard to find a snug fitting seat.... go find a Recaro rallye from the 70s/80s..that u will LOOOOOVE
