RobDon's Leon -

[Ibiza125]

The black/blue leather ones? Don't really want leather, too slidey, hot in the summer and cold in the winter, been there with leather Recaros.

Might be retrimming the whole interior with black/charcoal grey 2-tone alcantara this winter
.

Aye but they were alcantara centres Only black leather bolsters.

LATEST UPDATE - I wasn't happy with the 2nd-hand Corbeaus I fitted, they were a bit tatty and worn, looked a bit out of place with the rest of my interior, so I took them out and sold them on ebay (only lost £18!) and ordered a pair of new Corbeau Apex recliners. Here they are fitted ...

They are heavily bolstered as you can see (feel more like bucket seats)and very comfy, they really hold you in place, will be great with clip in harnesses for trackdays.

Redline magazine photoshoot is this coming Wednesday!

Seatd look great mate, nce and comfy, doesnt look like my fat body would fit in them though!

 

[EL]

Finishes off the car nicely, top choice

 

[gezmeister]

Nice seats there, good choice

 

[Murdered LCR]

I really like those seats rob loads better than the blue ones

Upper body bolstering looks spot on but a little concerned about the lower, suppose with the clip in harness its will help resist the movement of you lower half.
Look way better and more RobDon than the other ones did

very nice rob, good look with the shoot too, well deserved

 

[cupra r tdi]

The lowers are fine Willie, you sit IN the seat not on it if you get my meaning, even with a seatbelt you don't move around much at all, with a harness on tightly you won't move.

They are also lighter than the Recaros too so another bonus!

Rob are they the micro suede type or just cloth , what runners have you got them on , I think the lcr seats are one thing that let the car down they don't hold you enough

 

[RobDon]

Fabric, I asked for microsuede but I'd have to wait 2 months for them! I got the fabric seats within a few days and they gave me £47 off the price for not getting the suede that I asked for (some problem with the suede supplier). They are Cobra subframes, the ones I originally bought for the blue Cobra buckets.

2 months that's ages lol , I have seen them for 295 each is that a good price or did I find a dear site ,

 

[RobDon]

I paid £250 each for mine, plus £15 delivery.

As said I ordered microsuede but refused to wait 2 months, so I got some extra discount.

 

[Murdered LCR]

Nice one rob will have a look

 

[cupra.steve]

They look great! I'm looking at changing mine soon, still have the standard ones in!

 

[MarkWales]

how would a change of seat affect insurance - only asking due to the airbag system?

Edit - just realised you have no airbag

 

[brightsideteeem]

they look absolutley spot on.

Well I had the Redline magazine photoshoot today. All went fine apart from the weather, it was showering on and off all day so I have no idea if the shoot will turn out any good or not. He took a ton of pics and I was there all day, from the pics he showed me on his camera they do look good, so we'll see. No pics to show, just have to wait for the mag!
