Default recaro seats anyone?

just got hold of my 3dr r32 with recaro's....which is good....but....to allow access into the back do i have to lift the handle in the lug AND the handle that allows the seat to slide back and forth....the reason i find this strange is because if i do this i have to reset my seat position again....i am sure i must be doing something wrong [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smashfreakB.gif[/img]

Had an MR2 - everytime you wanted to get to the storage behind the seats you had to reset the seat position - pain in the arse to say the least.
Anyways, how you finfing it mate.
Feel that torque..............

Nope they all do that and its a complete pain in the ass..

Not that I've got recaros that is... but a guy at work has one of those end of line CTR's with recaros and his is exactly the same...

[/ QUOTE ]its nice....doesnt feel as racy as the rx8....although 6th gear now does when 4th would have been required before....love the colour...dbp...love the sound of it....think the interior quality is down from my old mk4....seats could prove a real pain in the arse on the rare occasion someone is in the back...tempted to tint the windows...only very lightly...anyone recommend a good grade of tint?....overall a happy chappy i think....
