Default Recaro Pole Position
Hi

Does anyone here have some Recaro Pole Position seats mounted in their Corvette? Which seat mounts did you use? Pics from your Recaro seat setup would be nice!

Thank you!

Thank you for the pictures. Which seats are these? These mounts do not have sliders, so the seats are completely fixed, ist that right?

They look like Caravaggio race seats.

Patzzz,did you gain any headroom with that setup? 6'5 guy here looking for options.

Adjusted for my height so no sliders ( not needed for one driver and easier to made ) , both are fixed and seat position is lower. I did not measure but I could get at least 4inch more headroom.

I hate to be negative but the top area of those seats are hideous looking.

Looks like a sweet zr1 too. As long as u like them is what matters tho.
