I've just spent last 2 hours scratching my head looking at how to mount my RS Recaro's. I envy you having std fitment Nova seats tbh.

cheers craig lol i dont envy that job much, spose the only way is weld some brackets to a std nova subframe and then to the metal frame on the recaro seat bottom

i know it could have been done for ?800 but i wanted a higher grade leather hide ordered its alot thicker so im hoping the side bolsters last alot longer, it also looks much nicer as the leather grain is alot corser and more defined

If you can justify the price then its all good IMO.
Its no different to a grand on a respray.
Think I've sussed the seat mounts, but its a bit of engineering/machining & welding.
Its ?1100 better spent elsewhere on the car in my opinion.
Altho a "complete" show car need the interior to be equally as good :)

yeah i put a ?1000 deposit down and ordered a arden blue one it was being delivered from a liverpool vauxhall dealers as a ex demo with vey low milage but they made a massive mistake as it already had a deposit put down on it, so mega lucky for me as i decided to keep the nova as i would have lost ?1000 but i never:D

Wicked Seats. Would love to have new leather on mine.
Craig the problem you'll have is sitting higher, IME any seat other than Nova ones sit very high

I love retrimmed standard seats.
Shameless plug I know but I will have a full set of retrimmed leathers for sale very shortly.
They are black and a grey colour that matches all the grey interior parts.
they look mint mate....have to get mine done when i get round to the interior

srimon i wish i knew a few weeks back:roll: lol
Lookin' Good mate !
Bit of a safe choice tho, personally i'd of gone for a Deep Blood Red, or Burnt Orange/Dark Tan colour, on a silver car it looks very smart ;)
