and almost never see it with the correct rear headrests included as well.

Don't rub it in, that's exactly what I pretty much gave away with my last Mk2  :sad: .  I thought I was moving 'on' to the Mk5 scene but 6 months later I remembered why I liked the Mk2.  I should have put the car in storage!

i recon might be able to get 300 or a bit more for just the front seats, having the complete interior may push the price up. there were a few mint kits on ed38 but they were all slow to sell as its wrong time of year to sell high value stuffs.  the link above price is higher mainly due to the rear headrests and having the matching bench, since that pattern is recaro specific and almost never see it with the correct rear headrests included as well.

the market seems to be dropping for the recaros, a complete corrado recaro interior in that pattern went for only 500 on ebay recently, and thats the more rare version with electric tilt and height adjust!

RJ; do the tilt & height bases from a Raddo fit in the MK2??

yeah the base frames swap over but obv you wont have tilt if fitting to mk2 recaros :)
the corrado recaros are a bit different in shape to the mk2s, the backrest is kinda thinner if that makes sence, plus the plastic trim for the switches goes round the front of the seat to cover the height adjust motor.  trouble with corrado seats is they're rare, so if you have a damaged bolster pretty much only option is to get a trimmer involved to repair since finding a good passenger seat to pillage is gonna be unlikely!
