    Alternative front seats

    Am looking to replace both front seats in an 85 County.
    A mate has an Aerotech seat for his GLW ( good lady wife ) and swears by it , very comfy , lumbar support , armrests etc.
    It also has a removable seat squab to access the storage/battery (batteries ) under.

    We are having trouble tracking down Aerotech and I think there may have been posts on here or exploroz .

    Are there any other manufacturers who make sports/touring seats with removable squabs?

    Checkout the Recaros also. One of the key reasons I bought the SVX. They are sooooooo comfy!

    Thanks Chucaro and SVX.

    Will call.

    SV , do the Recaroe have a removable seat squab to suit County under sea5 access?

    Yep - removable seat to access underneath as I have just had dual batteries installed. Whether it fits your County or not I don't know. I am sure there would be an adapter plate but if you are serious, I would ring Recaro and ask them.

    Seats are a personal thing. Everyone who has looked at mine and then sat in them comments about how great they are. And when you spend a lot of time in the seat, the initial cost is overshadowed by the benefits IMHO.

    Cheers,

    They are great, but not worth the OEM price. $13k each from LR if you have the correct VIN, $11k from Recaro. Make the $4k over standard price I paid for the SVX seem down right cheap.

    I would love a set of them, but at prices like that they can keep them. I got to have a good look at them on the weekend in the SVX that came to maitland show with Davis performance landies, damn nice seats!

    Given there's been a few wrecked Puma's around (OK, not the SVX's) you may be able to get a couple of the standard new model seats. These have a much higher back than the previous ones. IMO very comfortable.


    But I'd still like some Recaros if the weren't so

    Thanks for the Aerotech number but that is now a Nursing home or something
    No one knows where to find them.
    Got quoted on the Recaros today $ 2135 ea but this does include Lumbar support and the mounting frame.
