Which type R seats are we talking? EP3 seats or Recaro Speed seats? Either will go with a little welding. Ste (Bristol_BB4) has my old EP3 seats, but I did take some pics of the lude runner brackets welded to the EP3 runners if you need them. :wink:

The only thing about the EP3 seats I don't like is the 'Type-R' logo. If you can get rid of that then it would look cool. 8-)

I really like the EP3 seats that are found in the Anniversary editions. The one with Recaro logo and the one that looks like the EVO ones 8-)

i fitted the type r seats with the red insert in my old 4g cut the rails off the 4g seats and welded them on to the type r seats only problem was that you were alot higher in the car as the type r bases are a lot thicker than the 4g ones not sure if thats the same in the 5ths
