I just swapped in a Recaro Sportster CS in place of a Recaro Sport, and will post a picture when I get a chance to access my laptop.

So far, I have to say I like the Sport better, as it sits lower, but the CS is nicer looking seat. I used a Planted bracket but will be replacing it with a fabricated one similar to what utekineir used to try and lower it.

You can pick up a set for a real descent price from someone who upgrades to buckets in their evo. The work is not that hard for a real fabricator either.

Very good Information.. thanks for participating. This is exactly the information that people need to be able to run Different seats. The passenger seat sensor is crucial important info.

Thanks again. Please continue

Click on jadewbj's link.. they took the sensor out of the old seat and put it back into new seat. Billiant.

Very nice set up! I'm a big fan of the EVO X Recaro's.

I would love to not have to gut my stock seats incase I need to revert back to stock in the future. I thought someone was working on a variable resistance device that can simulate the pressure sensor signal.

It is nothing that could not easily be reversed. If we had more time and hog clips we could have made it functional in the evo seat. Right now it is just folded up under the carpet.

My red Bride Zeta 2 with Buddy Club RS Rails. I also have a resistor inserted so that I don't have an airbag light on my dash.

Here is what i did on the airbag btw. Both seat airbags just were drilled through a metal panel in the frame with nuts on the back. Lined up one bolt, drilled hole for other and removed a bit of foam. Then ran cord down the seat.
