bulldog 2 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Just put some black leather colour concept recaro seats into my highline, the difference to comfort and driving is unbelievable, the best mod I've done to a car for years. Link to post Share on other sites

andygti39 0 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 my colour concept seats are the best mod i've done to my car, the difference is unreal Link to post Share on other sites
SankysVR6 1 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I have to agree, the CC seat's are something else compared to the standard highline seats. Best mod I've done as well. I think the Highlines should have had them as standard Link to post Share on other sites

bulldog 2 Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 did youy buy teh fronts on there own? that what id ideally want' date=' how much did you pay? nice one, good nick?[/quote']I looked through ebay for front seats or an interior in black for a while and couldn't find any, and if I did it was either too far away or too dear, Mike. So I looked for a black colour concept mk3 car that was local, then I contacted the seller and said I'd swop the seats for my highline seats, come to his house and do all the work and give him a £100 cash, the owner (nice bloke) was ok with this if my seats were mint and the heated elements worked ok as his seats are mint and they heated up ok. So deal done and a cheap set of colour concept seats fit in my VR6, in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites

The car went off ebay for the second time today unsold for the second time, it didn't have recaro in the ad, just heated black leather, and that is what it has now as it did before.He knew the difference in the seats but as he couldn't sell he didn't mind as he was getting £100, when the seats were out and stood next to each other the only difference was the rears, the bases where the same apart from slightly different possition of the stitching.

SankysVR6 1 Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 That is a good deal bulldog, I tried that before i bought mine and they didn't want to know. :@ Ended up with paying £200 plus my front seats, I thought it was a bit much at first and wasn't to sure about getting them. But in the drive back with them fitted all the doubt was gone. Link to post Share on other sites

mike 6 Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 i just offered the guy sellin his colour concept on ebay but he said no he want to keep teh car original Link to post Share on other sites
SankysVR6 1 Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Just keep looking mike, I'm sure a set will turn up. But can i ask why your not fitting the Speeds in instead. As those are even better, or are you going for the OEM look. Link to post Share on other sites
mike 6 Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 yea, its because the colour concept ones are more comfy...and heated! i really want to retrim a set black but been quoted 550 for the fronts! Link to post Share on other sites
