How to get Recaro for My 06 elise - Page 3 - LotusTalk

VBCARGUY · 08-21-2008, 05:21 PM

I will be putting together a group buy for sparco pro 2000 seats with custom made brackets next friday the aug 29. Here are picture of the seat in my car. The one with the black dog in it. The other pictures of of another et member with two of them in his car. I or we Rg engineering here in virginia beach has designed a mounting solution for the drivers side not the passenger side. Our kit will come with a seat that you can drop in and go. No fabrication required we have done all that your you. We also trim the seat so that it fits in the car. Check out my other thread tall guy seat sickness. If you interested pm me.

Thanks,
Josh

Any comments?

We've fit a Recaro seat in our Exige without having to cut it. We'll have a creative new seat rail that will work with the Recaros. We'll be showing it off at the Paladin Open House on Sept 6th.

OK Shinoo, how much for the Lotus Sport Recaro seat and your creative new seat rail? I'm very interested if you could put together a package like that.

I also have a new custom mounting solution but it does not move forward or aft. You have to pick where you want it. Pictures and prices to come on friday.

Yes the seat in the picture is much different from the Sparco Pro2000. It is thinner and would not fit a person with a waist much over a 32. The holes may appear to be lower but in reality they are about the same. You sit a bit lower in the Pro2000. I have been using the Pro2000 for 2 months as a daily driver with a 4 pt harness and have been very comfy. I have sat in the seat in the picture and I would not want to take a long drive in it due to my size but it is a very nice option for people who are smaller.

Hope this helps,
Josh
