Help installing my Recaro Idealsitz ..!!

[Pafagt]

Hello…! I have a pair of Recaro Idealsitz S that I bought a few years ago and only now be installing on a 73 T. They came with sliders but I can’t figure out where they bolt on the rails of my car. My car has the normal comfort seats.


Where do these fit ?

In here..??

Am I missing a part?

Thank you for your help,
Pablo

just enter "bracket" as the search term. then you will find enough. both recaro and scheel fit your seat. you need the small / light version. regards uwe

Thanks Uwe I’ll look it up.

I have also fitted Ideal S seats to my 73T, and I bought some lightweight seat mounts, similar to these: https://www.zuffenhaus.us/2016/09/21...h-a-30mm-drop/

I had some issues mounting the seats, which I posted here: https://www.early911sregistry.org/fo...o-seat-fitting

Are the lightweight seats mounts strong enough for the heavy Idealsitz S seats?

I’ve not had any issues.

Pablo, very nice 72/73 Idealseats, btw.

You can use also SWB folding consoles.

Thank you very much for your help. I found a set from John Gausden in NZ…pretty far away �� hopefully they’ll make it home safely and quickly. He only had a set of the reinforced type so I guess those might be Ok for the Idealsitz, they are pretty sturdy and a bit heavy but super comfortable..!
