Recaro states they are approved for use with a 4-point harness here. Both in 3 door (tilting) and 5 door (non tilting) variants.

Quite possibly Ford cut corners and the Sparco one was just "for show"?

I was under the impression that although it resembles the Sportster, it is an OEM special, not the retail version? But again, only through internet waffle and hear-say, nothing concrete. Perhaps this was a lot of fuss over nothing after all...  :ashamed:

....Not at all. I, and I'm sure others here, are very grateful you have raised the question - It's an important question and of great value to be able to discuss it.  :drinking:

For what it's worth, my insurer Greenlight is familiar with them and completely happy to include their use whenever I so wish. Although as tony_d rightly points out it's impossible to lean forward at a blind junction for example and so I don't usually use them on the road.

Gotta dash out now but contacting Recaro and Schroth is now on my To-Do list.

tony_danza:
Yeah, there's a few cosmetic tweaks but essentially the same shell and contruction.

No fuss, you've rightly pointed out that you should never assume when it comes to safety, always check.
