    Was there ever a fitted seat cover offered for the gp

    Recaro dont list the seat on their site even as an OEM seat so I dont know where to start looking. I'd much prefer a nice looking cover rather than a generic loose fitting one.

    Cheers Mark

    Might be worth giving www.seatskinz.co.uk a look at, I know they are pricy but apparently you could not even tell it's seat covers on the seats.

    Yes there was a seat cover that値l fit the seats properly of the original GP Mark and they had recaro stitched into them. I did have a couple but think I gave them away when I sold the car. They値l fit the RS recaros too so would probably do yours.

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    Have a look at eBay number 262879406249 for a similar cover but consider that if you池e involved in an accident then air bags in the seats would be restricted getting deployed.

    If that's fitted for a CS sportster then it would probably be too tight for the coupe seats. ?

    I cant find any other cars that have that seat, was it done specifically for the GP2, because the gp1 uses the trendline, along with astra vxrs, but all the usual suspects like Ford, VW, BMW, cupras havent found it in anything else
