Buying Limited Seats?
 
Is it possible to somehow get the limited seats?

That's really the only reason I want the limited, I figured I could probably get the seats for less than the $3000 price deference between the models. How though??

I suppose an alternative, is to just get nice racing bucket seats, and or a seat cover to get the similar material. I have a feeling if somehow you find them new it will cost you as much a good Bride seats, or Sparco.

I find the limited seats to be extremely comfortable with lots of support, I have experience with recaros in VWs, but I have no experience with aftermarket seats. Anyone have experience to compare between aftermarket seats vs the stock brz seats?

Beat me to it. You can get aftermarket seat heaters and install underneath them. Or buy mine for 2 grand and I'll get Recaros, lol

Not even close good bride seats like the vorgas and cugas go for 1500-1700 rach each plus about 150 each for the rails.

But your seats for 2g's??? Now that's rice gouging lol. evo x recaros only go for 800-1200 tops depending on the condition.

I was also thinking on replacing the stock seats with a nice set of bucket seats. But only if there's a way to retain the side airbags.

I know there's a recaro sportster CS with airbags, but does it work "out o the box" with our cars? Or do i need to buy something else?

The recaros with rails are a bit more than 3000$.

If I start the sale ad with "JDM" I should be able to get more than $2000! :lol: J/K. I just want Recaros and I'm too poor to get two Sportster CS's and rails on top. Broke the bank just getting one Recaro for my MR2! I really like the Limited seats; the only reason I'd want to change them is to get more head room for wearing a helmet.

You'd likely have to gut the side airbag out of your stock seat and stitch it in to the Sportster.

I'm having interested in this. I like having a BRZ model but the prices on used FR-S are really good (cheap). I can get one for about 23K. That's 5K i save and can put into aftermarkets and away from my car loan.

But I love how the limited looks, so figured this might be an option for making the interior look a little better. people have already said the stock nav is junk so save money by not putting it in.
