The Gold Standard.

RECARO needs little introduction.

However, the intricaties of fitting seats is often a guarded secret by shops and enthusiasts alike.

As a part of my Interior Program, I will document my unboxing, body fitment, exploring mounting solutions, and cover my selection along with installation notes.

Cheers,

Timeless Design.

Many OEMs offer the Sportster CS as standard equipment in their high-performance models, such as the Ford Focus RS, Nismo GTR and Lotus Evora.

It reclines.

The shell was designed to be reclinable, retaining a comfortable access to rear seats.

The Euro-Spec has airbags.

Custom wiring is required to get them to fit. More on this later.

It can be heated.

The Recaros come with a 2 level integrated heating pad. The switch is on the seats themselves and isn't integrated with your OEM buttons.

Fiberglass shell.

The shell is made from Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GRP).

There's just something about the Recaro brand that is eternal. 

It's a statement. They are the BBS brand for seats, without the bankruptcies.. 

It takes Germans to create a seat brand with the euphonic of Latin poetry while still having etymological origins in their Saxon language.
