HELP What model Recaro seats are these?

[Sweet_Johnny]

Hello all. I've got a set of Recaro buckets in blue tweed that were in my 1986 C10 when I bought it as a teenager and have no clue what model they are. I tried looking at all seats currently available on the internet and have been to multiple forums as well as Recaro's site. That was all before I snagged these pics of some numbers today, but searching with them so far has been fruitless.

Can anyone help me identify which lineup these are from? Is "30G" a model or a certification? (FIA 30 G test)

All I've deciphered is that they're from January of '98 and started life as Dark Blue Cloth, so any and all input is greatly appreciated!



Thank you in advance.

I was bored....

Look like Lx series to me. Maybe OE? Read one post that talked about Golf seats being "flat"

Thank you sir, I definitely appreciate it! The plethora of seats they've made have minor differences (bolsters, knobs, etc.) that make it difficult for me to pin down, and I've spent too much time on it already but my brain needs this mystery solved. There's an extremely strong resemblance to the "Classic LX" available now, and those first 2 pics look nearly identical if not for the recliner adjustment knob and pleats. My knobs are triangular in shape and I keep seeing ribbed/ star shaped ones. There's also only one single pleat on the bottom portion. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they were originally stock in some other vehicle but the brackets sure seem aftermarket, which makes me wonder if they really are OG LX seats. The front mounts were bent down to fit the cab floor (not correct locations) and I assume they were originally just flat 90° "L"s. The back upholstery & padding pulls away from the seat itself but not completely off, and the back steel panel seems flat as a pancake. I'm not sure you're supposed be able to, but a guy could hide stuff behind there and retrieve it without damage if careful. The headrests also tilt.

Here's a few more pics:

Found another pic from an old brochure PDF that points to them being LX-A seats without the optional arm rests or mesh headrests. Ignore the circle, this came from a thread on a Porsche 911 forum.



I also found this, although the link isn't a "safe http" I went ahead and checked it out. It's full of info on Recaro seats and indicates these are likely Gen 2 based upon the support diaphragm.

This might actually be solved already.
