Some pics of the seats...

Sparco's

Recaro Sportster CS' as I picked them up in black leather

Then they were sent off to Capital Seating in Leicester to get trimmed for me...

As I had gone for the Focus RS Mk2 steering wheel...it means it came incorporated with blue stitching...so I decided I wanted to match it...coupled with blue alcantera centres...and a blue RECARO logo...the end results...
