Just picked these up to sling in the Coupe.

A pair of Subaru Recaro WR Sport Prodrive

By all accounts they are a limited run set of seats and very very comfy. I know the standard Scooby seats are not renowned for being the most comfortable, these are very supportive and hopefully a nice upgrade.

Plan is to keep the mint leather set from the car in the loft and get some harnesses to go with these.

Not sure if I'll remove the rear seats and run it like that for a while.

Any additional pointers over and above the guides when it comes to swapping them appreciated.

You may be able to use the standard Coupe seatbelt anchor, which would remove the need for harnesses

You're welcome to drop in on a Saturday morning and we can pull one of our scrappy cloth seats apart to see how the base / sliders can be re-used on the Scooby seats

Thanks Nigel. I'll let you know about Saturday if I can drop by. Will confirm before hand to let you know.

I know OMP and Cobra do a tailored Coupé seat base so will need to start looking at some options.

Im thinking as nice as the harnesses would look, and keep me firmly strapped in, the daily practicality of the standard seat belts may be my option i stick with.
