FWIW,
I would go for a bit more slimmer version of Recaro. It's a bit of a tight
fit as is.
These are the LS version (used on my European cars in the 80's). A slight
tuning was made to the back on the passenger side (to accommodate the
bulkhead).
Otherwise a big improvement over stock (including GT5s).
