Solitaire 0 Posted March 9, 2005 Got Grey Electric Heated Electric Recaro's in my new one! :D Only prob is the heater doesnt work on the passenger side, and the electrics half work, thought it was still worth getting the car tho, as you dont see many with the recaro interior, if i get chance, will post some pics only thing, can anyone tell me why they have the seat release on both sides? and why it isnt big enough to hold the seat belt, like the non recaros do, may be a daft question, but just wondering, only had the car since saturday and just noticed it last night!

Andy T 0 Posted March 9, 2005 What C have you bought? I wondered if it was something to do with the seats being symmetrical so they could be fitted to both sides of the car, but I havent had a proper look yet. My passenger seat will lift but not go down, I swopped the switch with one from the drivers side and it works ok. I have opened up the faulty switch but so far cannot see what is wrong with it. Its a 'VW' switch with VW part number, might ring the dealer for a price for a good laugh! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinkus 10 Posted March 9, 2005 I've no idea what purpose the levers on both sides serve other than to say "hey I've got Recaros" :lol: and sure, they're not as practical as the standard seat levers, but hey, they look cooler! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Solitaire 0 Posted March 10, 2005 The C's a 94M Blackberry with Grey Leather VR6 Auto, and before anyone knocks the auto - try it, cause i had a manual last time, and the auto aint much different acceleration wise, did think twice about the auto, but the cars only done 79K and she's in very good nick I may try to change one of the switches, see if it makes a difference, not fiddled round with the passenger side yet so not sure what works on that one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy T 0 Posted March 10, 2005 Nice, thats where i've got my recaro's from, a '93 VR6 Auto! The kickdown is good, if you prod the throttle quick enough you (dont even need to full throttle) it will drop two gears and fly! it doesnt change up until the red line either! Only thing is , it sometimes stalls on multi-storey car park ramps, embarassing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dinkus 10 Posted November 3, 2005 I think I've only ever seen about 6 sets of them because most people that could afford the extra for Recaros spent the extra again to get them in leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
