Two Auto Style Type AK seats in black vinyl with silver stitching (SS 74LS-X2), £470 the pair. Silver stitching is the most neutral of the three AK colour options and sits quietly in any interior without drawing attention. If yellow or red stitching feels like too much for the build, the silver is the understated choice at the same price. It suits interiors where the existing details are chrome, silver, or grey rather than a strong accent colour.
Reclining, 405mm x 280mm bolt pattern, steel frame, no headrest, all heights and sizes. Sliders for both in the box. Ordering the pair from this listing confirms both seats come from the same batch and the stitching intensity matches between driver and passenger. Fitting frames purchased additionally, one per seat.
4-point harness compatible. No FIA competition approval. At £235 each, two singles cost the same as this pair. The red stitching (SS 74LR-X2) and yellow stitching (SS 74LY-X2) pair alternatives are available at the same price if a different colour suits the build.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Discover the Auto Style Type AK Reclining Sports Seat, and Auto Style Type Classic Bucket Seats Now Available to View In-Store. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will I fit in this seat?
The maker lists no driver size restriction on this seat, so it suits the full range of heights and waists. Those are the paper numbers; how a seat actually feels to sit in and climb out of is a different question, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so call us with your height and waist and we will give you the honest answer.
What do I need to fit it to my car?
You need the car-specific frame for your vehicle, plus a sliding runner for fore-and-aft adjustment. Tell us your car and we will quote the complete fitting kit in one go. Our sliding runner guide covers the adjustment side.
Does it recline like a normal seat, and what about armrests?
Yes, the backrest reclines, which is the whole point of a sport recliner over a fixed bucket: support in the corners, comfort on the motorway, and access to rear seats. Armrests: not fitted on this model. Our recliner lineup comparison shows how the ranges stack up.
I am a bigger driver. Will it work for me?
Possibly, and it depends on the exact shell rather than the brand. We wrote a straight-talking guide on sport recliners for larger drivers from real showroom fittings, and if you send us your waist and height we will tell you honestly which recliners work at your size.
