what would people recommend, i have prodrive recaros just now, but want some new ones,

something lightweight ideally,

i cant have seats designed for 11 stone twigs with no shoulders either as ive got a bit of lard to carry

 

The Prodrive Recaros were reckoned to be the best out there.

If you want something better, I'd recommend you visit somewhere with stock that you can sit in, then question them closely about subframes for your car.
It's NOT as straightforward as you might think.

 

Having recently switched a few times between oe (MY00) Classic seats and the Prodrive Recaros; I found the oe seats more supportive, more comfortable, better quality and definitely much lighter.

 

not many local seat stockists my way,

yeah the problem with the recaros is they are easily double the weight of the standard seats, altho they are comfier and look 10 x better, imo

the issue of how easy it is to swap the seats was another point i was considering, not many just bolt in and away you go then?

 

Only oe Scoob ones. I took the standard UK ones out of mine and put STi6 ones in.

 

What's the difference other than the material? Not that that isn't good enough reason in itself!
