does anyone in the group know what model Recaro seats were installed in the early 2000 model year XK8"s? Is this seat available from a Recaro dealer?
would the current seat rails bolt right up or would modifications be necessary?
I find the current seats do not supply much support and if there are other/better alternative I would appreciate hearing of them I do not want to lose the stateliness
of the car but would love to not slide across the seat.

Welcome to the forum Jeff,

We've had a number of previous posts about members wanting to replace their standard seats with Recaro and looking for used examples. I don't recall reading a post where anyone has found an alternative to sourcing them from a Jaguar and therefore assume they must have been made specifically for Jaguar and are not a Recaro stock item.

Please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some information about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.
