Recaro recliners out of an escort. Really comfortable. Had them re upholstered by optimise automotive, heated seat kit as well, £50 off eBay!

I used a cobra subframe, and put metal strips between the mounting points on the under side of the seat. This was because the recaro,s have a wider mounting than cobras.
But the cobra subframes need a little shortening to get the seats sitting lower as it makes them sit higher than standard seats.
If I had time, a garage and a mig welder I would make up some fixed brackets to have the seats sit lower and make them more stable as you do get some roll when you go round corners because of the hight and the narrow design of cobra subframes. but for the time being its fine and looks great!
But the only thing I would do differently to these seats is have them done in leather not vinyl, as they squeek and are a little bit more rigid in the fabric than leather.

Have a look at this: http://autominiregis...111&page=9#4655I saw that the Alfa Romeo GTV seats fit in the rear, is there a way of the front seats fitting too?
Alfa 156 rather than GTV, and he had the rears professionally altered to fit, but they look a treat.
