If you're really tall like i am it makes heel-toeing a bitch/impossible because the wheel is directly above your right leg and which limits your leg movement, thus stopping you from getting your foot into position to heel-toe |
yea i noticed that to...annoying
on a side note, anyone know where i can pick up one of the hooks that hold the webbing on for a recaro?Im missing one...

You can get a complete interior in matching leather, front and rear with the E21 Recaros for less than that. No, I am not kidding either. |
True-
But for those die-hard purists, a set of original, NOT reupholstered E21 Recaros w/the BMW logos on the side are quite desirable these days. Just depends on how bad someone wants 'em:)

how long will that 25 y/o vinyl last? not long, i predict. since the seats are incorrect anyway, what difference does it make they are original? for that money, redone in leather is probably possible.
sorry, but just keeping it real.

Diehart purists would not put a Recaro in a 2002. That's an oxymoron. _________________ Pierre

Yea.. I don't know about the whole "rare" thing.
I got an amazing pair of recaro's out of a 320is with a blown engine...
The the car complete with engine whole interier, 5 spd, limited slip diff, and so on for $900. I sold at least $800 dollar worth of stuff off of that car on ebay... _________________ 1972 2002tii... the best ever
