    Back to my usual tricks (aka seat whoring)

    Well after getting rid of my VW Recaros, I just couldn't stand not having extra seats. Just made a trip up to Mass for these babies. :)




    The 2 on the right are Recaro LS in Houndstooth from a euro-spec 525e that I just picked up. Came with the sliders and brackets for an E28, but may use them in an E30. Other than needing a cleaning, they are in really nice shape.

    The one second on the right is another LS that is a work in progress. Payed $20 for those at a Junkyard a few years ago, and the other one is sitting in storage. The last one is a Recaro SPD that just got and is going into my M50 car.

    Got another set stashed away and a nice pair of black leather E30 M3 seats too, just deciding what and when to do.

                    I love that orange recaro pattern. Does that fabric come anywhere? I would LOVE to have it duplicated in white/grey fabric with black bolsters in OEM sport seats.

                        Ben,

                        Is that a 15" or 390mm on the E30? It looks good!

                        nice seats also. Love the Recaro pattern.

                              I may throw them up for sale, I believe you have first dibs. ;)

                              I've got some pictures somewhere when I first got it. Does this work?

                              True that, I don't know what it is, but cool seats do it for me.

                              Yeah me neither. Guy I bought 'em from said he pulled them with the sliders that were bolted to a euro spec E28 525e somewhere in New Hampshire. The sliders look exactly like the standard manual E28 controls with recaro adapters

                              Thanks man. I found them in a Jeep literally minutes away from being crushed and bought 'em for $20 (the pair!). That extra center piece I bought on eBay a few years ago when it came up. I am planning on stuffing these into a 2002 or something like that.

                              Just got done getting into the car and so am I! The bottom bolsters are way more supportive than any of the Recaros I've sat it.

                              390mm and they are just rollers for now. Thanks for the compliments!

                              Haha, if the E30 M3 leathers go in, they may be up for grabs too. Tough decisions though, they be mighty comfy.
