Starting to look at gathering a few bits for the mk2 sport. What's the actual difference between the RS 2000 seat and say the Capri recaro ? Some pics will be of good use. If it's bolster difference in shape should be able to get that altered by the trimmer as any seats I get will be re- covered. Are the frames the same or near enough to make a Capri or any other recaro look like the RS one. Mounts won't pose any problem as I'm equipped with an angle grinder and a welder....lol any suggestions or seats gratefully appreciated.

These are Capri seats and will take a Fishnet or Rolltop headrest. However, look at the top part of the seat that lines up with your shoulder area, compared to the next set of pics below.

I have thought about these and getting them recovered in Betacloth. 

Probably cheaper than a second hand set of Recaros, lighter and more comfortable. Only question is if the headreast would drop in or need a bit of welding altered during trimming.

Looking at the pics, the RS seats are very similar to the proton GT seats I have in the Tina @ £100 a pair apart from I have roll top h/rests instead of fishnet. The other ones I thought of was the Astra GTE seats as a basis.
