Bucket Seats....Recaro's etc... - Benzworld.org

Does anyone have bucket seats fitted in the front, instead of the standard Vito driver and passenger seats?

I've got a 2001 112CDI with the 3 seats up-front, but would love to change them for 2 nice buckets.

If anyone has similar seats in their Vito or V-Class, what make and model did you go for? Also, did you have to make any mods to get them at the right height and fitment etc?

Any info, and also pictures, would be superb.

Cheers.

Dan.

Got Mazda RX8 seats in mine, might be changing them to leather ones shortly, fair bit of work involved...get a pic up tomorrow.

Nice!

Did they take alot of work/expense to fit?

Zero cost, mounted the drivers on the carriage from the original seat, so as to get a bit of height and it doesnt rise and fall now.....passengers involved destroying the seat to get just a base.. but it all worked out anyway, you'll need an angle grinder and welder if youre going to try it...
