Goz Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Hi, just popping over from the A8/S8 forum. I'm starting to turn my S8 into a project car, I'm looking for ways to reduce the weight. I read that RS4 buckets weigh 50 lbs, is this correct? There seems to be a love-hate relationship with these seats, so I'm wondering how much do the RS4 recaros weigh? Are the recaros manual adjust or electric? I have seen the recaros on sale on Ebay in Germany for as low as 1300 euros, so I'm thinking it may be a viable option in the future. Thanks!

Merlot Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Recaros are electric and have side air bags as well so must weigh a bit more than the buckets. You are right with the love/hate btw! Bear in mind that the B6/B7 S4 had the same Recaros too so there is a big pool of stock out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except that the RS4 Recaros have RS4 embossed into them. Some people find the RS4 buckets very uncomfortable and some don't - hence the love/hate relationship.
