I put Recaro's in my 89. Stole them off the Vortex, and guy threw them in the car as well. He wanted $200 to deliver, but at 45 mpg, it was cheaper for me to drive there and back, even with hotel (Boston area). From what I saw on Ebay and other sites, with his redone in vinyl (compared to the rips and supports posted above that needed replacement) it's amazing what they were charging for the name "Recaro". If I didn't have them, I would love to get these seats you are selling. FWIW, while we know an 89 doesn't ride like an 09
, I tend to think the Recaro's in the 89 are more comfortable than the VW 09 seats.
Good Luck with the sale.
Stay safe, stay well. Jimmy.

Darn, I was getting close to contacting you. I just bought the wife and Ipad. And was going to use that as leverage...
