I would second the suggestion to call back the insurance company and speak to someone of authority. $500 will not cover seats and rails without going into unsuitable or unsafe products thus creating a very dangerous situation.
Play the safety card with your insurance company.
If you don't get any satisfaction, I would consider working through the managerial hierarchy.
Contacting a lawyer and documenting the entire process (names, dates, etc. of calls, email, letters, etc.) is also a very good idea.
You're the victim of a crime. Don't let your insurance company victimize you a second time.
Good luck.

WTF!? Who the hell is your insurance company?
Mine were stolen last week and Progressive was getting ready to pay a $12,000.00 tab. After looking around at options I decided to save them some money and settle for some brand new all-leather Recaro sports for $1,300.00 each.
In return they waived my deductible, including fixing the internal scratched panels and the broken window and they're happy to do so and pay only a $ 4,261.27 tab rather than the $ 12,000.00 which it books as.
You need to call then up and talk to a manager. And then after you get made whole, you need to get a non-flybynight insurer.

What I'm saying is how many SE seats are out there, vs normal seats?? I was also just stating that I think the MR SE/SE seats are $14,000 vs the MR/GSR $12,000.

Whoever the insurance adjuster was, they did not give you a fair amount for your seats. I would call them back and tell them that you cannot replace the seats for what they have paid and demand more. What they gave you is rediculous. I fight with insurance adjusters all day long. Talk to a supervisor, that usually works. GL.

Definitely call the insurance company, first, get a written quote from the dealer, then, tell them exactly how much it is going to cost to replace. Also, check Ebay or on here, you'll easily find a set of seats

Some ******* decided to break into my 03 evo and steal my recaro seats and many other things. Have a solution and money to fix and replace everything, except the seats. I don't know if anyone has checked the price of the Recaro seats from the dealership...$7000 a god damn seat!!! I guess you really get what you paid for. Insurance only gave me $500 a seat, and not one junkyard has a good used pair. Any ideas/solutions for the fix?? I wanna get back in my pride and joy and rip some vettes and stangs ha ha!!! Anything ideas would help. Thanks
