Final Recaro/Redline seat install pictures!!
Saturday, June 16, 2007 5:02 PM
Well it took me pretty much all day to finish this project i started last weekened, but i finally got it finished. I had a few days of trial and error to see what would and wouldn't work with putting these seats in! And finally found a way. They are not perfect but it works, they are comfortable to sit in and straight as there gonna be. Over all im pleased with the results!! Let me know what you all think!!

Do the rear seats still fold down? That looks like something i would be interested in if they do. I need them to fold since i put my bike inside the back trunk.

Yes they fold down... But the locks on the redline seats are in a different place than they are on the factory cav/sunfire seats.

Thats one thing i want to do, is some how get the redline seats to lock in.

well a set exactly the same ones just went for like $250 on ebay, but pick up only. i got outbid, i didnt have enough money after $220 for the gas needed to go pick them up

lol, i know that sounds pathetic, but i really want cobalt ls seats insted, i would have had to re-wrap the blue cuz it wouldnt match my car.


anyways, my LORD those babys look mint in there man!

Well i used the ION's factory seat bar that holds them in and made some new holes and bolted them in. They are actually smaller than our rear seats so, they are not a tight fit at all. More a very loose fit. The only problem i have is with the seat belts for the back. Im gonna have to figure out a way to get the belt locks thru the seat. But for now whoever sits in the rear can just lift up the cup holder to fasten the seat belt.

I wish i couls say the same for the front seats, those are a very tight fit!!


Everyone else, thanks again for the comments!!
