Yea, made by Recaro. I don't think it would be difficult to make or attain brackets that would fit. Just thought it was worth posting, since their very nice seats, and would look pretty good in a 944. It could be cool to do something different in a 944.

They typically go for between 700-800+ Depending on color/condition. I'm looking for reasonable/fair offers to both parties.

EDIT: 650

I would love them, unfortunately I don't want to try and make them fit. For anyone that has never sat in them they are incredible.

agreed they are very comfortable, but i think its just too much to spend on seats for the ghetto civic i drive, and I'd be better off with the money in the bank/portfolio! Nothing like a seat made to oem standards!

If those are the Recaros in a friends S2000 they are incredibly comfortable. Porsche Sport seats tend to squeeze my lower back and shoulders while the Recaros were perfect. I think he told me the top layer under the leather was memory foam; that would explain the great comfort.

If you're lucky enough to have the rails placed at spacing nearly identical to the 944's, and the seat height is similar, you would only have to match the mounting holes.

Most likely, the seat height is similar, but the rails are off, so you'll have to weld some tabs onto them at worst.

If the height is too tall, you're just screwed. I highly doubt that's the case though.

These sit fairly low actually. I think anyone with a welder and a drill can make the brackets, or maybe a make an aftermarket bracket work.

Well, I'm not gonna argue otherwise. (Really, they are sick in anything. A4 guys seem to use them often too)
