Found out this morning that pair above have been sold but still searching for similar

[consvts]

red recaros :p

[Gabbastard]

That pair are almost identical to Integra Type R DC2 seats. Bear in mind that the Evo seats will be for a five door so wont tilt forward whereas the DC2 ones will.

Never thought of that actually just assumed they where reclining, will look more towards the dc2 and civic recaros now, thanks :P

red recaros :p

A lot of them are faded to fuck :P

The only problem is the Civic/Integra parts command an outrageously high price like anything Jap really (£120+ for a pair of subframes anyone?) I bagged a pair of Accord Type R Recaros for my AX for WAY less then anyone wanted for a worn pair of Integra seats.

You can still get people in the back if you make the subframes correctly and wind the seat back manually forward. Its slow to get in the back seat, not impossible. Im not too bothered as its only my dogs who go in the back lol

ya its hard finding a mint set without paying a bomb

If you get some recaro's that are worn then just repair them. Theres a guide on the Integra Type R forum on how to remove the fabric to put into the washing mashine, and while theyre off you can replace any bolster or section of the fabric. I was going to do it on my Integra, but found it hard due to time!

thanks mate!,
currently a mashup between the ones above(made a mistake there still available theres another identical set that was sold) and ractive plain black relining seats with two harnesses for slightly cheaper

[Gabbastard]

I got the ones on the left in this pic, the ones on the right are DC5.

You can see theyre pretty similar (back pattern and fabric aside). But theyre sooooo much cheaper. Plus my car is green so the fabric matches nicely :)

red dc5 the ones i have with red rallye carpet and rear half leather rear bench with red seat brlts in the rear and black 3 point harnesses up front is my plan with every single other piece on the interior flocked black or red :p
