Recaro Subframes

[Big Lee M]

So do the mk3 golf S/F?

[stiglet]

Went to have a look but they only had a drivers side and I had taken my passenger side off to test it out. Fit it in but the centre rail was off, so I'm not sure if this is because its the wrong fitment or the wrong side, if that makes sense.

Took some measurements and will check it out when I have time during the day.

I think the rails are offset towards the centre. The gap between B pillar and seat is larger that between the centre console and seat. Be good to see if the mk.3 Golf ones do fit cs Recaro still make them...

[stiglet]

I'm pretty sure they do fit and height looks to be ok too, but I just want to make sure. Sorry I've taken so long to get this, i'll get it done today!

[Rusty]

Yeah, get it done

Yes

Or at least I think so....

Go on Andy, be a guinea pig.

[Rusty]

I'll see what I can find then!

Wish it a been sooner as I was going to bid on a pair of recaro's with subframes 99p and £15 delivered nobody bid on them as well

The Corbeau subframes in my car say "Golf III" on them. They are very high but I don't know if that's because they're Golf ones but they do fit.

By the way, mine's the Avant of course.

[Rusty]

Looks lik eit's time to get one of these then...

[Rusty]

Ebay.de seems to have thrown up 1 of each subframe that I'm after to try, now to try and get a response for sending them over here...

[anton]

may be a daft question, but can Corbeau/cobra ext seats fit on recaro subframes?? seems that recaro are the only ones that sit low but dont like the idea of spending mega amount of cash on a recaro seat....

You could adapt it but no point. Get some Recaro Speeds out of a Mitsy and some subframes, job done.

[anton]

problem is that Corbeau seats come up all the time on ebay at under £100 a pair, my mate has some in his golf and i think there spot on...dont see the point in the higher price tag of the speeds, not for me at least. i'll have to take his and alex's seats out one day and compare them.....
