What is a Recaro PP ABE?

A few people wanted to know where I found/bought the seats so here you go.

$900 with cheap shipping. https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-3...seat/?pdk=AQEB

$825 with pretty cheap shipping. http://www.rennsport-one.com/shop/re...position-seat/

I googled like hell to find those prices. I can't believe it took me 8 years to buy a seat that will allow me to fit in this car. Maybe now I won't have to look over my windshield to see what color the stop light is.

ABE is a TUV certified version. I also have though, though with shipping across the pond it came to about $1200.

you sure these are the NG New Generation) ones. part number on turner shows old part number that's the one that failed FIA. new ones will have part number 070.98.UU11-01 these now come with side mounts included. so if you are getting them without side mounts for sure its not the revised version.

Are vendors still selling the old version? I figured Recaro would have pulled back all old stock due to the recall.

Since mine are being dropped shipped from the supplier so I don't see how they could be the old ones. However my track does not require certified seats so it should not effect me. I'll let you know when I get them.

How long ago did Recaro switch to the new version?

Update:

TunerMotorSports.com does a good job of getting to you right away with live chat. They stated it is the new seat but I won't have brackets with it. Do I need these brackets to mount the seat to my buddyclub rails?

No

This.

From what I understand, you can't really used the Recaro side mounts anyway if you are trying to get a really low seat position. Kind of strange they don't include them though as I thought it was part of the revised FIA certification. Sounds like a good deal though since they would be useless for your needs anyway.

Good find. The price on rennsport is the best deal ive been able to find.

I received my seats last night and it is the new version. It did come with the seat brackets and stated Recaro Pole Position N.G. and the proper part number on the box. When I get a chance to install it I will try to post pics for you guys.
