Do escort rs turbo seats fit into a sierra sapphire?
I take it you have to swap the seat runners over, do they fit ok doing this?
Cheers

I think I have a set if my sapph. They have the knob to pull the back forward like a 3dr car would have and they are not from a 3dr Cosworth, so I think they are from an RS Turbo. In my other sapph I have a set from a Scorpio, where I swapped the runners. As far as I know the Recaro seats themselves are all the same fitment.

I think they will just bolt straight to the runners. Normally a recaro is the Same bolt pattern, no matter what car they are from

So, I had a go today, the sierra I'm fitting them to isn't a cossie, it has normal seats, the runners off them seats don't match up with the escort rs turbo seats, so going to have to do a little fabrication to the runners in order to make them fit!
