Philmo 0 Posted November 26, 2008 Hey Leon - did you get 'em then? I reckon they'll be really smart all in leather. 8) I'm stickin' with my Konigs - had an issue with seat height, now resolved by re-bolting the driver's side, as there's no height adjust.

_leon_ 0 Posted November 26, 2008 I'm looking for a set yeah - but ones I can get restitched. Leather is great - but can get far too hot (since not all of us have air con) and dont hold you as well as cloth - so not sure i'll go with full leather...

junkie 0 Posted November 27, 2008 Personally i think you would be fine with leather trimmed RS recaros as they are deep enough to hold you nicely, i dont have the issue with them getting too hot as a general rule of thumb i break my car in the summer so it doesnt get used till the winter when its fixed.

_leon_ 0 Posted December 6, 2008 collected a set of RS Turbo Recaros up today - £48 :) Thanks for the help guys. Who is the most reputable for restitching? Heard of MJ Interiors and Snappy Gaitors - but unsure of the quality of the latter. I've seen some of MJ's work - while the stiching is great I've not been hugely impressed with the quality of the leather used - its not as good as whats on the stock seats. Any opinions, advice or experience on this? Any help again much appreciated :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkie 0 Posted December 6, 2008 You get what you pay for i suppose, so whilst you have seen some of MJ's work he is only doing it at a cost that people are happy with i guess which will reflect in the leather quality i suspect. Oh and bloody bargain, nice 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
