How about Recaro Malaysia?

I called Recaro Malaysia to ask about this as well sometime back (how to clean the seat) and got the following information...quite useful and SCARY also (Price)

The guy told me they DO NOT SELL/ Unable to Supply OEM Recaro seat in any market.

Meaning like if you have Evo or Proton Recaro, if wanna refurbish, buy NEW (e.g kena stolen or koyak) we have to GET BACK to Mitsubishi or Proton to order from them since these seat are "copyright protected "....only them are entitle to sell but not Recaro itself. He quote there's been alot customer asking them about this (like Putra seat kena stolen)...but they can't help. Need to direct them back to OEM.

Also he told me these fabric is NOT from Recaro but custom design and made by the OEM. They only supply the seat frame and do the assembly work for these car maker.

Like Evo 9 seat he quoted me cost around RM24K JUST FOR A FRONT PAIR and if wanna buy need to like order from MMC Malaysia > MMC Japan > Recaro > MMC Japan > MMC Malaysia > Customer

For Proton, full set front and rear will cost about RM9K .....i asked him do they carry similar design seat like our Recaro. He said got but with Recaro own fabric and colour...price is like RM1400 or RM1900 each front unit excluding rail sad.gif (Europe car rail will be much more expensive)

OK, Let's talk about cleaning now, he told me use ANY fabric cleaning in market will do...way to clean is SPRAY the cleaning to the fabric and wipe until satisfy. Then VACUMN until it dry since when you spray and the dirt will FLOAT...so if you let it dry automatically it will absorb back to the fabric = never clean.

For refurbish price like Proton Recaro, they charged around RM1200 a pair or per unit (can't remember)....replace foam or partial fabric also same price..

That's all i can remember. HOpe this help everyone

Oh ya..Recaro is using fabric that supply from Alcantara www.alcantara.it or http://www.ultrasuede.com/products/automotive/oem/

AvexTrax ,
Here you go the info i have...got it from somewhere sometime back

The shop is in Taman Perindustrian Puchong. As you are approaching from Bukit Jalil, turn left before the Shell Station. Go straight all the way and you will see the row of shops on your right.

The corner shop is a Tuning Garage called OMS Motorsports. KAZE is on the second floor.

For front seats: RM350 per seat (Any and All Models)

For rear seats: RM500

For front and back seats: RM1200 INCLUDING all 4 door panels.

For sports steering wheel : RM200 using REAL Italian Leather

They use 100% Original Recaro fabric, plus the Recaro wordings. You can cusomize the colour combination as you like and you can even mix and match as you see fit.All the work comes with a warranty and these guys do a great job!The price is very competative and before you comment, drop by their shop and have a first hand look at the quality in mention.

They are currently specializing on Recaro but are also going to move towards other makes like SPARCO, BRIDE, OMP and others.

They also do leather upholstery and a host of other interior work. Top notch stuff!

Steering rewrap using PVC = RM120
WHOLE car (Normal Sedan) using PVC (High Grade) = +/-RM1K
WHOLE car (Normal Sedan) using Leather (Italian) = +/-RM2.5K

I don't have their actual address nor contact no..but you may try the direction i gave you :)

Good luck mate !

nice...thanx for the info g88

Ok, this might sound funny, but I think the fella you were talking with do not know much about their own products.

All Recaro / Bride / Sparco / OMP etc seats comes with their own ( meaning : own company ) trim! They will never get the trim from any car manufacturers who wants to have Recaro's inside their production car. Usually, the said car manufacturer will ask Recaros what kind of seats and trim they can supply for a certain price, that they can add to the car's asking price. Then, Recaro will give a few designs according to the budget and the car manufacturer will choose which one they want lah. You think Proton got the actual trim used for Putra's and GTi's Recaros? Nope!

The trim ( and the front seats ) you see on Recaro seats for Putra and GTi, actually came all the way back from the early 90's called Recaro Enjoy, a very basic Recaro reclining sports seat. Proton got 'em for cheap. Heheh.

The best Recaros come from, not Germany, or Italy, but Japan. They have all these crazy trims and thread colours, especially those produced in conjunction for Autobacs ASM ( or something like Autobacs Sekon - Han, but these Recaros ain't 2nd hand! ). Crazy full dark grey Alcantara trim with contrasting red thread pipings, very2 nice.

And don't forget Recaro TS-G and RS-G, the only unique Recaros ( and also currently the latest Recaro ) made only by Recaro Japan, and currently only available in Japan.

On the cases of : refurbishing Recaro's for certain car models ( Evo, Putra, Type R models etc ). It's impossible to do so, unless there's a shop locally who can get access to the trim / cloth used for these particular Recaros, then maybe can re-do lah.

The price for Recaros like the fella quoted for you is right on track though. But RM 9k just to retrim front seats? Now that's plain bullshit.

And no, not all Recaros use Alcantara my friend. That stuff is expensive! Only certain Recaros get this yummy treatment.

I called Recaro Malaysia to ask about this as well sometime back (how to clean the seat) and got the following information...quite useful and SCARY also (Price)

Interesting. Original 100% Recaro fabric, plus the Recaro wording? Sample pic would be nice, as it's a bit far to drive just to check the quality firsthand. Anyway, the price seems nice. If the fella can do the same trim as EG6 ( chequered black / red ) I would love to do this on my car's roof trim!
