Anyone ever swap out their seats?
I've got the tuxedo interior and while I dig the look and fine european leather, I don't like the stock seats in my C43. Has anyone ever seen swapped seats in the C43? I'm thinking Recaro C's or something period correct. but I might even go Sparco Milano, just something with better feel and a "sportier" hold to it.
Anyone seen it or want to do the same as me?

I know!
But the feel and the way they hold you makes all the difference in the world. I've also sat in a Sparco Milano that, although not period or heritage correct, is a great seat as well.
I just don't like the 'sponginess' of the air-bladder system and, in my opinion, is the only detracting feature of an otherwise stellar car.

Have you checked the recaro catalogue ?

Out Of Control!!
I have race seats in my 208 but I had the mounts made. My SRS light is on now and I had to weld the stick belt buckle to the new seat mount so I can't use the stock seats unless I find someone selling buckles doh!!!
