just had a guy over on AZ answer the question I was asking.
“When you buy a set of aftermarket seats (Recaros for example), you’ll buy the sliders and RS4-specific bases. The base has the seat-belt mounting points.”
Koolade9 is a member here to but he doesn’t post here much any more.
He posted here yesterday I believe
I have a friend selling these, i was thinking about on buying them and them get the silver/white part redone in black leather, but im afraid it wont come out perfect and the seats will look silly!

lots of people like the white alcantara
Panda seats!
i like alcantara too, but white on front seat and all black on the rear ones??? What u think???
I think who cares
- nobody sits in the back, ever
- nobody cares
the OCD types might not like it, but I’m not one of those. I haven’t washed my car in a month lol.
Im gonna see if i can get a good deal w him,and maybe ride on white alcantaras for a while till i find a reputable shop that can replace the white for all black leather!his seats are almost bran new!:)and it comes w everything!
You can always sell them if you don’t like them. Nobody is going to notice.
I wouldn’t re-upholster them. Just buy some in your preferred colour. Probably will cost less to do so that way.
Yea I wouldn’t bother to reupholster them. Just keep them or get what you want. If you don’t take them lmk. I might be interested, they might look good wth the two tone door panels.
That was me…and that’s how it’s done for the Sportsters… You’ll pick up a set of B6/B7 bases, then a set of universal sliders. Here’s an example of a seat base by Wedge:

The seat belts will mount to the base itself. Then on top of the base, you’ll use a universal slider set (It think by wedge as well:

Then the seats mount to the sliders. As a note, the sliders have 3 holes for height adjustment. In this application, if you want to use the lowest height, you’ll need to cut off the two lower mounting points/holes otherwise they’ll rub along the carpet…again, they’re “universal”.
Different seat brands/designs may need a different set of bases/sliders…Sparco, for example, makes their own base:

Hope this helps clear it up a bit.
if i had karma points i could give i would give them for good info Koolade. Im just not there yet lol
how bout the airbag light can u vag that out or is it some kind of resistor? or is that part of the occupancy bladder u mentioned?
This its a resistor that they use.
[quote=“Badtoyz,post:37,topic:6305”]
There are two separate things involved to keep your airbag system working properly… There is a resistor that is needed for each seat to keep the airbag light off, this is pretty well documented, and required regardless of what direction you go with the occupancy sensor.
As for the occupancy sensor, Option 1 is the OEM route. I transplanted mine from my OEM passenger seat. It now works in the sportster as intended from the factory. Option 2 is actually coding out the need for a passenger occupancy sensor…I would contact user ‘OscarMeyer’ for background on this, as I don’t know the specifics of that option.
koolade what steering wheel are you using? any recent pics of your car?
