Default DC5R Recaros ???

I am looking to buy another pair of Recaros, however im stuck, whether to save up for the NEW DC5R Recaros, or just go with the regular DC2R Recaros? Does anyone have any pics of the DC5R Recaros in their cars!

ps. please do not post pics of the "RSX" Type R... i have seen those seats in that car countless times, thanks!

they are pricey...but for the price they are going for on ebay i should have picked these up instead of the DC2R ones...they are pretty much like the ones that are in the Evo VIII if youve been in one of those before..

If I had the money, I'd get the DC5 arctic blue seats.

If you're willing to pay the US$875 shipping costs, the I can get just about any type of recaro seats you want.

Recaro Raptor, Recaro Tomcat, Recaro EK9/DC2/DC5, Recaro's from Evo 3-7, etc..

Does the DC5R have side airbags? I know aftermarket seats will cause you to lose all your airbags on the USDM RSX...so what's the deal with the R?

Do you lose your front airbags, too? That's my understanding of it...sounds like a bad trade-off for seats considering the stock ones are Recaros anyway

i dont think you would lose your front airbag, and even if you did all you have to do is just not plug the seat in to the car... but anyways.. any pics anyone ?
