Does anyone know where I can get hold of replacement covers for my recaro seats? Have tried UK Recaro dealers and they don't know what model of seat they are (1995 car). Gonna go to see a car upholstery guy who can recover them but would really like to have original recaro covers if poss(cos I'm like that!)

mind if I ask where you got the seats from?

I've been desperately searching for a pair for ages now...

They're standard on this model mate - sorry! They do occasionally pop up on ebay so I'm told sometimes for a stupidly large amount of money!

I think what you really want to do is sell me yours, with the tatty covers.. and put the money towards some nice new seats... don't you think that's a great idea!!

You could try Phil at Performance 5 - he was looking to make replica seats and has a supplier for the seats and an upholsterer for the covers IIRC

Piers - nice try

Jazzy - had a look at those and they look good but being the anal type that I am I really would like to have the Recaro logo on the headrest bit as per originals! (how sad am I) If I can't get originals I will certainly give those guys a call!
