Default Which bracket do I need

Not a lot of experience with changing seats types. Can anyone tell what type of bracket I would need to mount this Recaro seat in my 944?

Thanks.

Matt

Recaro SRD?

You will need bottom mount Recaro sliders and a seat base adapter. I use the adapters from Wedge Engineering.

I don't recall needing any adapters other than the seat sliders.

Depending on your plans for seatbelts / harnesses you may need some adapters there for the stock mounting points. This was one of the adapters I used, i'll have to look at my car for any others and report back.

There seem to be a lot of "Recaro rep" seats that are less than half the price of other Recaro seats on eBay. These seats say "made in Canada" or "Japan" and point to not being FIA certified.

Not having a lot of knowledge in the seat world, can someone confirm that "rep" is another way to say "counterfeit"?? It seems odd that Recaro would legally allow someone to sell seats with their name on them at less than half of what "authentic" Recaro seats go for, even used.

How can I tell the difference, besides price, looking at an ad for "Recaro" seats?

Thanks,
Matt
