GM USA takes the Recaro's away in the US for 07 , GM Europe gives the Astra color inserts like we shoulda had all along . Its looks hot .

 

wat kinda car is dat?...theye r hot ass seats

 

I want that e-brake.....oh yeah, and the seats too.

 

astra owns.
cant wait till it gets here.

 

The ebrake may just swap over for us . I dunno if they use basic lever as us or not . Ive been fishing the euro market for stuff thats compatible witht he Astra ....Im underwhelmed with the stuff available for the Cobalt outside of performance mods .

 

lol this guy is all about VOer seas. Cant blame him though... hes finding some cool stuff

 

Those red ones look awesome!

 

That is pure sex.

 

O man those seats and that shift knob and the e brake... i want it all!!! How much?

later

 

lol that would have made me get the recaro package...

 

yea how much is that going to run you?

I need some seats real bad

 

in my best Carl voice:

"Friggen awesome."

 

That interior is HOT!

 

wait so ppl can buy those seats over from europe and put them in cobalts right? isnt it the same seat just with different colorinserts?

 

No ...you cant . The adjusters are on the wrong sides . The way the seats are on all the Delta chassis cars , all the adjusters and tracks are integrated into the seat frame , so theirs no way to change it . Their not the exact same seat either , its the seat above ours if u look in Recaro's site . These are more like the Audi RS4 Recaro's with more bolstering

 

but where there is a will there is a way, I would just say it won't be easy to swap, probably could take it to a custom shop or upholstery shop and have it done

 

You COULD have the Cobalt Recaro's recovered in real leather for less than that swap would take . I just posted the pics so people could see what it looked like since Opel used the same color Blue and red as GM used in the Cobalt and the 2 look virtually identical .

 

but to tell you the truth, I like the seats in a non G85 more, it might be a little bias since that is what I have but they are more comfortable to me, I am having the inserts replace with black suede

 

Those blue ones are not stock... the guy who owns that car had them made custom right down to having the leather dyed to match the color of the car.

damn that detail is clean

 

Nice find man , actually looking more , the Red insert seats were recovered by CCS too . Neither of them mentioned that in their threads on the Astra Forums , I assumed it was OEM .

 

Take a look at the thread there on autotopia, it's actually quite interesting.

 

ya pretty interesting for sure
