Same seats are fitted into loads of cars suck as clio's, could be worth a look. Ive found the seats for £850 each on a recaro website, probabally need some brackets and bits to make fit.

Yes any Recaro seats could do I suppose! The removeble base on the SVX seats are handy but not necessary but the lack of side bolster makes it much easier to get in and out of the seat I should think Confused

They are not the same seats, the LR ones have a removable base and no side bolsters.

TBH as nice as they look they not as comfy as the xs puma ones in the 110 Whistle the ones in the SVX tend to be hard to me (I am of slim build) and generally I like the "hug" of Recaros as in old Golf and in the Beemer but in they SVX the tend to be slightly harsh and pronounce the already stiff ride (good for nippy cornering feel) .

I know we travelled 3500 road miles in Morocco and I found the xs puma seats great Thumbs Up Formerly mao99999
