For Sale - platinum S4 Recaro's (lots of pics) - $1200

**boy412** · 12-29-2008 10:29 AM

Thinking of selling a set of platinum S4 Recaro's that are taking up space in my basement. I was going to have them re-covered to match the interior of my car (apparently there is a "darker" platinum color in my A4) but funds will not currently allow me to do that.

They are in good/fair condition. No rips or tears, but the leather is discolored in several places. Honestly they may just need a good detail to revive them, but they will never be mint (unless you buy new covers). They are heated and full power. Super comfy!

Looking for $1000, local pickup only. Pictures available upon request. PM me if you have any questions.

Here are some pictures. Admittedly not the best photos but I tried to show them as best I could. The driver's seat I spent a few hours cleaning, so you can tell by looking at the passengers seat how much a good detailing will do. I didn't put the headrests on the rear seats but I do have them.

Now for the ugly (but I honestly believe they can look WAY better with a little TLC).

So like I said, not showroom condition, but can be cleaned up and used right away. They can always be re-covered later. OEM covers can be had reasonably cheaply (hit up Greg at DTH).

Thanks for looking...

Oh...and I'll throw in a bottle of Leather Masters "Strong Leather Cleaner" and some Lexol Cleaner & Conditioner. That's the stuff I used on the driver's seat.

damn, if they were black, i'd take them off of your hands right now

**boy412** · 12-31-2008 07:52 AM

You can always buy black covers for them and replace the plastic bits. Factory covers run about $500 for the backrest and $500 for the lowers. Could probably even order them with the Alcantara inserts!

Anyway...

goodluck on the sale buddy and some TLC really helps :)

**boy412** · 12-31-2008 09:24 AM

Yes. Its become clear that nobody wants to buy them in "as-is" condition. I'll spend a few more hours on them and post new pics.

They are cheap though. I usually see these ranging from $1800 to $2500 depending on condition.

Thanks for looking...stay tuned!

i really only want the driver's seat (i could care less about the comfort of my passengers). but i doubt that you'd be willing to part with just that.

**boy412** · 01-03-2009 12:54 PM

Yeah...can't split them up. Besides, who would want an un-matched pair of front seats?

New low price...

Also, found a local company that can get custom covers made from the factory patterns for about 1/2 the cost of the factory Audi parts. I may keep them if I can't get any takers. I could make a really unique pair of S4 Recaro's that work with my interior.

I'm thinking platinum leather with a darker grey Alcantara insert (to match the grey belt trim inside).
