Where are my seats from?
Back when I bought my Evo from the dealer they told me it had been broken into and the front seats were stolen, and that this is the only replacement Recaro could get for them. Now that being said, I have never seen a seat like this and wondered if maybe the UK spec Evo's had them or perhaps the older JDM Evo's. They are all suede except for the bolsters, and have an inflatable lumbar pump on the side and leg extensions for long trips. I like them, just wondered if anyone has ever seen them before.

Thanks!

It kind of looks like the seats that come in the SE's and MR's but it doesn't have as much red stitching. I dunno dude

It might have been a customized blue seat to look like an SE/MR seat.

You're seats lok nicer than the SE seats. The are way more adjustable and the leg extensions remind me of m3 seats. You definitely got lucky!

I dont know if they look nicer, but they're nice. And those definitely are not SE seats because the SE seats are exactly the same as all other models except for red stitching lol
