They are not RX they are RN if i'm not mistaken

removed rear seats

Weird in the sense they should have used a turbo like everyone else

Agree with the inference. The stock mirrors look fine, are part of the car and work well too. Not convinced the time cost and hassle involved with changing them is worthwhile and if anything detracts from the cars styling

I have a late spec full leather rear too, its absolutely perfect like new and barely if ever sat in. I will be having a retrim soon so the full covers will be available or if I was supplied with a cloth bench i'd get the covers switched over by my trimmer. You will not find better.

are you intested in the seat covers?

Here you go. They are in pretty good shape, and were in the car when I used to enter it at shows and its done OK in the past.

Sound perfectly reasonable and realistic to me and blue is one of the more popular colours. Price and condition will be the main issues. Good luck with the search. :clap:

[Did Jay Renshaw not have these fitted to his Corrado when he was building it? Think his username is 24vrenshaw thesedays.

Thats right, car now owned by Vick N, and a stunning example it is, mirrors are still on. Lots of pics on recent show reports. ED 38, Players & Westside 8)

Bolsters from the base are unique to Corrados I believe there is a difference in shape. The upper side bolsters should be OK from

Hope this helps.

Quickest, cheapest and easiest way as new leather simply won't look quite the same. A typical quote for a quality retrim of front Recaros only is approx £650. Include all panels and headrests, Would you think £125 plus p&p sounds fair?

I have a full set of Recaro front black leather covers removed from my car when I had a retrim, they are as good as you will find in original condition. I'm willing to sell if you are interested, will transform the seats 8)

Great product, one stop shop for easy 312mm brake fitment, no more hunting around for bolts, spacers and hoses. 8) Dust shields keeps everything clean too, as the stock items get binned when up grading.

Sounds like you've been busy and making good progress. Where did you get the aeriel base gasket? What was involved in fitting it, and are you pleased with the result.? Thanks

Cheers, Sadly I missed Ed38 for a number of reasons but I hope to get back out and about soon 8)

Here's a quick pic of the engine bay after a little TLC from the guys at DG Autotech :salute: . All the work is detailed above but the result is a nice OE looking bay, simple.

Car looks great, shame I missed Ed 38 would love to have seen your car.

WOW! recent work is stunning think i need to retrim my recaros

Cheers Terry, there may be a more cost effective route. I have kept the covers off my front seats which were as good as you are likely to find and the back seat or covers may be available and that is like new.

Also the RX may need a new home soon

i want those seats who done the work Gareth

Shaun, the seats were retrimmed by Andy Mayer at Snappy Gaitors. He works as a trimmer for Bentley at Crewe as his day job but undertakes additional work from his workshop at home. I wanted a top class factory fresh finish but better than stock, but he also does custom work. Specialising in VAG and Porsche he has done some of the finest and most detailed interiors out there. One of the most recent examples is Gary Brants MK4 Golf featuring RS4 seats terracotta/red leather and carbon. His work is superb.

Seats look good, but why did you retrim them, i though they were mint allready?

The seats were as good as you were likely to find for fifteen year old Recaros but now they are like new, tight and fresh and fully leather not vinyl at the sides and back as they are as standard.

Simply stunning Shaun

Car is in good hands with DG Autotech 8) Mines in there at the moment too, but all being well I should get to Edition 38, look forward to seeing your car there.
