      Stock E30 recaro?

      I just figured they are Recaro SE's.

      ideally i'm looking for something wider than a sport seat.

      I'm very broad shouldered, but not fat...
      long drives hurt my back in sport seats...this may be the answer.

          oh wow, never knew that!

          they do look awfully similar...
          in your opinion what are they like when compared to the OEM sport seat?


          btw I spy a Dyson DC 51?

            Correct, Recaro SE. They are much better than Sport Seats, those look to be using OEM sliders. I have a pair of SEs in my car and one more as a spare. Do you only have one?

                    Its been on my mind lately. Ive had the set in my car for 2 years now and they havent shown any sign of wearing, and I just found out the driverside has a manual lumbar in it, so Im even more hesitant to replace it. Shipping will be a nightmare though, but I have seen people take them apart and fit them into a box. PM me if you really want it and we can talk it out
