Most Omega seats are actually made by Recaro - but I dont recall them being openly branded like this

I think some of the seats fitted to MV6 are recardo's but am not sure but someone will confirm and i have never seen them branded on the material or tagged on the outside.
IIRc the Reflection model was a limited run type model that had bits from other models fitted as a mix,match model,I.e bits from MV6,Elite,Cd,cdx

Perhaps they were swapped from a newer model.i would think i would cost a arm and leg to recover all the seats and cards in the same material.You might find later when other members get home from work that someone will confirm the trim.I like them though

Just to say at this point, they are not "Recardo" but "RECARO" seats.

Also, Carlton 3 (Omega A), Senator B and Omega B seats are all made by Recaro. ;)

According to the brochures, they were only an option on '96/'97 Tourers.
Anything else, and I suspect there's been a swap involved!
