I would love to see these with extra padding in the bolsters. I wonder if anything can be made up to fit under there.

So no evo 8 recaro covers?

Unfortunately not for now.. im still trying to haggle..

Thats what im trying to ask.. extra cushion all round.. specially on the bolster area..

My only worry on this is when it wears out.. but from what my friends told me this is what pretty much every enthusiast in Phils are using and are very durable..

ok, so far it looks like we can get the 8G Recaro Seat Covers made up..

I found someone who can get hold of these seats..

so most likely we can get it, just the turn around time is still ??? at the moment..

The Evo 8 recaro and 8G recaro are the same right? SR2...? Seems promising.

Eco recalls are more a bucket sport seat SR3 from memory.
the 8g recaro is very unique and different to the evo SR range, theyr the same family as the recaro found in the 2000 pre Audi ,similar.. Not exact..more padding and different stitching styles.
but never the less the foam will be the same soooo,maby if so do e had a wrecked all road Audi then that could be a good pattern maker for the 8g recaro

ok guys.. should this go ahead?

this is what I know...

1. we can get these leather seat covers - these are not 100% leather.. they are 60% genuine leather & 40% synthetic automotive leather
2. this is to suit the Galants (non split) but from memory they also have the 60/40 split.. which are the same as the ones found in the Legnums...
3. Unsure of the difference between the PFL and FL bulges.. who who would like to try? if it doesn't work.. sell it to PFL owner I guess..
4. 8G VR4 Recaro Front Seats, at this stage, still a No-No.. we're still waiting for this guy to fully commit for this cause.. lol
5. 8G VR4 Recaro Front Seats and EVO Recaro Front Seats are not the same.
6. In every set - center console's arm rest cover is also included..

so please tell me if you're in.. in the link shown below..

he's agreed to take the car to the shop that makes the seat covers..

Thread revival.. so.. found out that the seat covers that i had have complete set..

I never posted it here thinking that the manufacturer didnt do the rear head rests' cover..

Ease see attached photos.. I have i think 2 or 3 more sets..

Need to find out how much i paid for these before i create the FS thread..

Looks the goods Christian(y)
I had a set of these for my 4door 32 years ago from a group buy on SAU. Very nice
Still some material from the parcel shelf left over, looks identical
