Recaros, brides? Which one..

Post by K4MR411 » Sat Nov 17, 2012 3:13 pm

I wan to buy a set of seats for my prelude but unsure of what to go for.
Ive been looking at recaros out of dc2/ek9s but for what there priced at, its not worth it. I Havnt come across a good set yet. Was also thinking of brides but they seem quite hard to find.

Ideally id like to stick to the colour of red to go with the colour scheme.
I could take the seat out of my mates dc2 and see what they look like in a prelude.

What do you guys think?

I have a pair of red dc2 recaros going for £300.

Some bolster wear on the outer edges, but new foam on both outer lower sections.

I'd also factor in the cost of some mounts for the lude - not many out there to choose from. I thought Bride mounts were the only option right now (what I have), but I did notice a sliding seat mount on ebay last night by Jamex? Do a search for it, looked cheap compared to the Bride items.

Recaro's will be cheaper, but the Brides will be rarer (hence the price!). Both great manufacterers. Just be wary of all the fake Bride seats on ebay. Unless you just want the look and not bothered on authenticity, then some fakes might suit you to the ground - I've seen a couple of sets in ludes.
