yes, but they only fit on 05's and 06's...the 07's have a different airbag sensor so they will not fit right up, you have to go through hell to make them work. i guess to answer your question the recaros will fit 05, 06, an 07 balts but the 07s wont have working airbags.....

I'm selling My Recaro's incase anyone was interested?

And 07's have an extra airbag sensor. I have an 07 and i can't hook up the air bag sensor to these seats.

Something logical to think about . You modify the wiring , you do comprimise the ALL of the airbags . The whole system is tied together , and unfortunately theres no way to test your modification .

If u got into an accident , had a passenger and they got killed because the bag didnt go off . You would get the **** sued out of u , as it is illegal as hell to modify a functioning airbag .

Early 07s came with them. My car was supposed to come with them but they were axed just before my car was built.

The reason recaros out of an 06 wont work in an 07 is because of the weight sensor in the passenger seat (06 didnt have one). Without it, the passenger airbag wont arm, and that would be disastrous in an accident.

They are talking about the 07s that didn't come with Recaros, and then trying to put them in there after market. The 07s that have Recaros were early 07 production and differ from the later 07s where you could not get Recaros, just LSD by itself.

Shipping would be $100.

And there is a guy on here who made his Recaro's without the airbag sensor work. I put in the pressure plate and what not.

I lowered the Price to $400. But only if your gunna pick em up. I decided Im not gunna ship these out. I really don't feel like going threw all the hassel.
