subframes

[Matt]

Hi,

Where the best place to order subframes for reacaros from? Capital?
How much am I looking at for a pair?
Do I need to get resistors at same time?

Cheers.

Thanks James.

Do I need a pair or is 102.17 for both sides?

Sportseats4u works out at £239.60 inc postage. Seems quite steep!

Any other options? Couldn't find them on capital seating!

I seem to remember them being £110 plus each a few years back ... Subrames are definately a thing to factor in when buying seats, especially from other cars.

I know the Megane subframes are different and most OEM subframes from other cars are not suitable. Other options include generic subrames and/or fabrication. I did this with a set of Clio 2 Sparco subframes ... Check out the knowledge base for other ideas etc.

Actually I remember seeing these seats at Demon Tweeks a week or two ago and thought they might suit a Liquid Yellow car :approve:

you need to call Capital Seating for a price as their website doesn't list them (which i found very odd considering they're a big Recaro dealer!).. i found Sportseats4u to be the cheapest when I was looking about 2 months ago, and believe me I did some serious trawling of the web to find them cheaper!

it just means that to make it viable buying Megane seats (or Recaro's from other cars) that you need to be paying about £600ish (IMO) - though i hope i'm not too late with stating that!

Sportseats4u worked outslightly more expensive than capital.
You're not too late got seats for 500 quid! So little bit spare for subframes.
