RS4 Recaro Seats vs Mazda RX8 Recaro Seats
 

I found a good deal for some brand new Mazda RX8 Recaro Seats. They do look a lot like the B7 RS4 Seats
I know they are not identical but I want to know if the sizes are the same. The RS4 seats from pictures do look a little muscular and larger but it might be from the picture angle
The headrest area is a little different but size and width wise I am wondering if they are the same.

If so, I will get the set and install them into my B7 2.0T

Here are the pics to compare...

Just get what you like cause you'll have to fab anyways

I am hoping it won't be too hard to fit
planning on installing the recaros on the oem seat mounts

I like the looks of the mazda ones, but he RS4s are probably more comfortable to sit in since they're a little wider at the shoulder.

that is my main concern
the rs4 seats are wider and look muscular
the rx8 looks really good inside an rx8 but i am concerned that the seats won't look as good as in rs4 because of the size

i thought that the recaros are fit directly onto the car with no modification? or is that only the b6 recaros? I know u might have to fidget with wiring but i thought it was nearly a direct swap?: As for the mazda ones i have to say u will definatly need modification.

the best way to find out was to do it and see :)
very satisfied with the results...

They look really good. Info on what the swap entails?

My bud use to have an rx8 the recaro's feel pretty alright, they're tight but i would probably go with the rs4's because they'll most likely fit without modifications

Best deal I found on the RS4 seats were $6000
I got these for $1000
It was worth spending 2 hours on installation rather than paying $5000 more ;)
