The airbag sensors have been "fooled" by fitting some sort of resistor to the bit that plugs into the lead attached to the original seats. I believe this part was sourced from Mini....I didn't fit them myself but that's what it says on the invoice.
No. They are half leather / half suede and they had to be specifically ordered from Recaro and had a 6 week lead time.....although the aftermarket seats are faux leather and faux suede however, they are of a very good quality.
Marmite time.....you either love them or hate them
Also, some badges er.....fell off....the rear!
Very nice! What offset are those BBS RCs? I just bought some BBS RCs 16x7.5 et 35, but I know they come in multiple sizes and offsets. If they fit like that I'll be happy. Also, what size tire do you have there?

Wheels are 17 x 7 et42 and I'm running 11 mm spacers to clear the BBK
Tyres are 205/45 AD08s
Hmm, I guess my wheels might poke out a little more, which worries me, but only by about 2.5 mm. Hopefully I that's too small to notice the difference. Thanks for the info!
