davebirl 0 Posted May 22, 2007 I want to fit these and re-trim them in leather.....are they are direct fit to the VR6? What are they worth roughly? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g60greeny 0 Posted May 22, 2007 HMMMM same style as mine, they fit the runners but sit too high compared to rado seatsi think? well i know rado seats fit the mk2 golf anyway :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davebirl 0 Posted May 22, 2007 I heard they may sit too high alright and that does worry me. I'm about 6" 1inch and always sit at about the lowest setting.......can anyone confirm? Much appreciated. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
timg60 0 Posted May 22, 2007 NA they wont fit your VR but will my G60............................. Swap ya for my leather fronts :lol: Only kidding too much rum :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlett 0 Posted May 22, 2007 dont retrim them! they are rainbow recaros and worth something to the right person, sell em on and buy leather seats... would be a shame to change them... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A1 VR6 0 Posted May 23, 2007 If you are determined to fit these in your C Dave I would make sure you salvage the covers when you retrim them. If the covers are in as good condition as they look in the pic they will be worth good money. I had a set of these and tried them in the C but you'll find they're much too high and your head will be touching the headlining. Solution is to find some Scirroco runners and use those.

davebirl 0 Posted May 23, 2007 Thanks for the advice guys. Looks like I will pass them up then and keep holding out for a Black Recaro interior.....I need all the head room I have already :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A20 LEE 0 Posted May 23, 2007 even on the lowest setting mk2 recaro subframes sit way too high. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted May 23, 2007 i'm 6ft 2" and i have loads of headroom, but i did make the subframes myself, bought some knackered mk2 seats, and took off what i needed and welded them together. karl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davebirl 0 Posted May 23, 2007 so could I butcher the base of my standard seats to get them sitting right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davebirl 0 Posted May 23, 2007 As always thanks to everyone for their advice. There is defo draw back to making these fit. I don't want to loose the height adjustment. My missus requires a boost. I'll hold out for the real mccoy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
