V8 Vantage sports seats?
The lightweight seats are pretty narrow at the shoulders, but have a bit of space round the hips. And, despite not having much conventional adjustment, they are very comfortable.
In the Vantage, they are fitted with a motorised base and the standard electric adjuster is used, but a bit limited, i.e. if you move the backrest back, the front of the seat rises, similarly, adjust the seat base, it moves the backrest, they only really needed the seat base adjuster, but then it wouldn't have looked good.
If you wanted to fit standard CF recaros, you'd probably do the weight saving right and lose the adjusting motors too, then your only problem is any warnings about seat airbags being missing.
Have to ask though, if you needed the Xtra Large recaros previously, then isn't there an easier way to lose 60lbs from the car/driver combination

I have seen some non recaros that are adjustable and look very similar. Im tempted to give them a go. If it doesnt work out I will put them in my Supra Twin Turbo
