Morning all laugh

Iv recently aquired a set of Fiat 'recaro copy' airbag Plus seats laugh

My plan is to swap over the red inners into the plus seats, and fit into my LE, then put the black Plus inners into my LE Recaro's and sell on at some point.

Why? I hear you ask, well, having owned a Plus as my first coupe, with airbag 'Recaros', I much prefer the plastic side moldings etc, and I remember them being more supportive and slightly more comfortable than the LE Recaro's.

May all be in my mind however, we will see.... crazy

So now i can compare them directly, and i'll post up my result / differences / pics etc, I find for those that may be interested...

obviously the side airbags will not be connected on either seat, these will be aesthetic only...and they do look good IMO...

i'll update soon cool

Have had experiences with both as well and currently have airbags. The airbag seats do give better support and comfort, I feel. What I don't like about them is that they sacrifice leg room at the rear and the head rest cannot be tilted. I also prefer the triangular knob of the Recaros.
