They're 914 factory Recaros, I got them from the shop that works on my car, TRE Motorsports up in Van Nuys. I started autocrossing and wanted seats with more support, and was looking at a pair of those GTS seats. Then my car was in for some work and I was talking to Dave about it and he goes, well, we have these for sale... My ego did the car logic math (damn you ego) and convinced me, wellll, they are only a little bit more expensive, and they're the real thing, sooooo... And now they're in my car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Good call! |

Mikey914, how about you make a run of the square bezels for us? I'm in for a few sets.

Ended up getting all the parts for the door pull from Bob at appbiz (alas, no bezels). Two leather straps with eyelets and all the hardware necessary to mount the pull and the plastic handle into the door. It meant drilling 3 holes to mount Jack nuts but was pretty straightforward.
