Newbie here 👋🏻
Hi guys new to the forum, bought a 88 grey rs turbo last week 95 k and full service history and paperwork dates back to 1991
its at its final stage of a full restoration and I'm going to finish her off, owner had money problems and needed to sell. Everything is new on the car and last owner spent thousands on restoring her just never got to finish it

Looks a nice car, and Just to make you aware, You have fit the drivers seat(pic No9) into the passengers side.
I do like to see the early RS fit with the later cars handbrakes and the surround console. Much better than protruding from the carpet.
If you're going down the standard route, You may want to know of some sites that'll have parts needed for that 'small detail'.

Yes, the seats are only held in with 4 bolts. Only takes 10 mins to swap over. Tilt the seats forward and recline them forward to avoid damaging the kick plates/sill when you take them out/in the car.

Yes I know that, All Recaro LS seats are designed like that from my knowledge*. Its the adjustable tilt that your want to look at. The drivers side has this to their left, the passengers have it to their right. IE both adjusters are in the middle of the car.
* With exception of RWD and 4WD. Which will both on on the outer sides of the seats.
