Recaro Reclining seats

Hi all!!
I hope everyone is well.
I feel that there is very little about this topic on the internet, so I’d like to ask you all about your experience and any interesting info.

I would like to swap out my standard seats with some Sparco r100 or Recaro Sportster cs.
I have not found any specific seat base and seat runner for the both the sportster cs or the sparco r100 seats. How have you all managed to solve this issue?
I am leaning more towards the recaros but I’m curious whether those running the sparcos are happy with the seats (level of containment, comfort and overall quality)

With regards to the airbag issue, I know some people have managed to fix it with a resistor but I haven’t been able to find out the size of the resistor needed. I would love for someone to enlighten me on the matter.
I appreciate any and all contribution, thanks guys

Ps. I have attached the photo of the car which mounted the Recaros. Taken from another mini forum

You can get Recaro CS's with Airbags and all mounts shipped from Europe with your choice of leather .... in the $5500/pair range Shipped cost.

These are NOT JCW Recaro's.

Thanks mountainhorse for the reply! I am aware that they are not the JCW Recaros, but I don't think there is a big difference between those Recaros and the JCW Recaro ones. I would be looking at getting just the mounts, I will look at the AMX performance website and see whether they sell just the mounts.

Thanks again for your valued response!
