thats great and all butif they dont hug me or adjust like the 03/04 seats then my interest is gone :(

Those '03-'04 ain't got ship on a Recaro. The Recaro has a patented recline mechanism that allows for mm adjustments and a manual up/down crank for the base very nice seats. I bet they'll hold up better than the '03-'04 seat as Recaro's quality is second to none.

^ I have a friend that seems like you, he's had a number of Recaro equipped cars and he always wanted the less restrictive seats. To each his own cheers :beer:

I'm curious how the airbag situation will work. I really wanna swap out to the Ford Racing version of these seats when I can find some available... I wonder if they come with airbags or the bags in my factory seats can be swapped.

The 03/04 seats are tighter around you. Quality is better in the Recaros and do a great job of supporting and holding you during cornering maneuvers. They are easier to live with on the daily driver. They are a little stiff in seat bottom but not all that noticeable. I really like the 03/04 but honestly I like the new Recaros more
