Hi all,

was wondering if anyone knew of or deal with a company that makes replacement foam for recaro ls (highbacks)

i have already been in touch with capital seating, but just trying to make some more comparisons in terms of price and fitment etc.

thanks

p.s if anybody has any for sale more than happy to discuss

Nobody makes them anymore, they are an injection moulded piece and the moulds will have long been thrown in a skip

What you think about the capital seating foams do you think they are good enough and fit properly

Capital seating is recaro's UK distributor
The Internet - It has proven to be worthless, and is nothing but a repository for perverts.

The ones Capital sell are infact golf mk2 ones. Yes they are ok, just need some fettling around the back.
