Awesome updates.
Changing the seats from the stock ones to Recaro LS/LX makes a massive difference! Are you going to use Bride or Recaro seat rails?
I bought my Bride rails from Nengun for about $500 shipped. Took roughly 3-4 weeks to arrive.

Not usually a fan for the blue interior, but this contrast scheme looks very sharp!

Slowly getting there :) Oh I was so excited, I love the style, suits it so well! Well I'm not too sure about this, were these seats a factory option for some of the rarer AW11's? There's so much heresay it's hard to make sense of it all. Do your's sit low? I am quite short (5"2") so I don't want it too be any lower than the originals. dennis the menace

Yes it is very blue that's for sure, thanks for the time being until I retrim the blue on it to match the grey in the Recaros' it should be okay! Sat it in a few nights ago, looks so good, can't wait to have them both in!

The Recaro's I put in mine were LX-C which are the same as the factory Recaro seats. Basically the same as yours but with a pull out thigh support.
The seem lower than the stock seats as i now have a couple of cm's more headroom than before.

Ah yep, so the rails that they originally came with should fit in then seeing as though there was a factory option? Ahh, will have to see about that then!

The ones I bought came from a Hilux Surf SSR-G so unfortunately the rails were of no use. Had to buy them.

Not that I'm aware of. MR2OC forum has quite a bit of information though.
