After seeing these on Vortex and reading that Recaro now offers a wire loop for the side airbags, I was wondering if anyone here knows of someone installing these.<P> <IMG SRC="http://www.vwvortex.com/features/project_cars/jetta_gli/seats/03.jpg"> <P><P>

Hey Chris, I am going to be installing some older Mk2 VW Recaros in our Project 245, but I think the whole transaction is going to be a little bit more basic than your application.

Would those seats retain the factory electronic seat adjustments or is it manual?

BTW, did you get any new pics up of your car? I'm dying to what else you've done to it. How's the aluminum trim doing? I'm getting my car back next Wednesday... I can't wait!!!<BR>
