Recaro seats

[Steve996326]

Anyone have experience with recaro seat as replacements for stock rather than reupholster for a 2000 996 cab

[Loren]

Recaro seats are well know and have a good reputation.

That said, I think the issue more buying the correct fitting seat mounts.

[Billy Bob]

As Loren indicated seats mounts are important.

 

Here are some other things to consider.

- seat type: reclinable vs fixed bucket

- seat belt buckle: different seats types accommodate seat belts differently, you’ll all need to figure out wiring if you don’t use the oem buckle

- egress and ingress: fixed buckets are harder to get in and out of

- seat sizing and bolstering: this is a matter of your preference

 

If you can test fit a seat, that would help immensely. Good luck with your search.

 

Personally, I went with Oem fixed buckets, and prefer them over the standard power seats.
