Hi,

I was wondering if anybody has used any VW recaros in their EG? They can be found easily, cheap and are really comfortable (a friend of mine has a Jetta MkII with these seats). These sold for $110.

 

im sure you can custom weld something. They do look really comfy and pretty damn cheap

 

they look sooo...jdm..lol

 

my dads got some of these in his 1990 Jetta GLI...ive always wondered if they wouldfit in the civic....bump for more info

I know so JDM!!!

But a Recaro is a Recaro, and these are really nice.

anyway.. vw likes to be picky.. its not as bad with older stuff but it still can turn ugly. If your friend will let you, and you two feel confident you could get the seat back in his car without breaking anything then just see if his seat will fit your car before going out to buy some. if it fits, or looks like with minor work it will, then go for it
and i agree they are comfy. One of our older jettas had them in it.. then the poor little thing got smooshed by an old man speeding the wrong way down a one way street.
