Seats - anything non-standard

Still looking for seats since the standard ones in my car are giving my grief.
Spoken to a few people about buying new repros of either a period bucket or Recaro sport seat, but before I go down that route, I would be interested if anyone had anything secondhand they wanted to sell. OEM or repro, as long as they aren't insane original-Recaro prices, I'd be interested.
Open to ideas, but my car interior is tan, so prefer something to match.

What sort of price jb? I''m just weighing up the cost of new seats versus getting mine retrimmed...

They were a good buy - only ('only', ha!) $3k seems like a pretty good deal. I've been abroad, and missed them, though...

I have a pair of newly retrimmed tan leather later Recaros that were going in my S until plans changed.
They look like a cross between the original sport Recaros for 911s and a later Ford Eccy MkII RS2000 seat. That make any sense?
I got them from Alan.UK a while ago & had them retrimmed - I'll ask him if he's still got an older picture of them as they're currently in the loft.
Interested?
Martin

I'll sort some pictures and guesstimate a price and let you know.
Once you've got fed up waiting for me and because I get side tracked easily please feel to nag me.
PM me your number too. Cheers.

There's some RS Recaros on the Bay, but they're black with houndstooth. Bummer.
Nice, though.
