Are there any STI owners who are not getting on very well with thier Recaros and would like to part exchange them with my JDM STI seats....

A long shot.. but Tony told me to ask!

I was told of a new pair for £1500.

Just out of interest, do your 2008 seats match the colour used on the latest seats?

You can only buy them off subaru in parts not as a complete seat, the bases alone cost £1200 thats without the seat. Mine are just grey alacantra & black leather sides

I was told that by my local dealer, but, IIRC Crossroads had sold a pair and think there is still another pair available!?

Hopefully someone will come along and confirm?

I have allready spent too much money, so I don't want to splash out another £1500 at the moment, and the standard seats are pretty nice in black IMO.

The Recaro's are fantastic.
However - fatties beware
I'd say anyone with a waist size > 34 will simply not fit in them

You got to be sh'ting me thats as bad as the S204 seats. my back is to wide for them and they keep reigniting an old wrestling injury every time am in them for a long journey.
