Two Auto Style Type GK seats in beige vinyl (SS87LC-X2), £512.50 the pair. Beige recliners with a 345mm bolt pattern are uncommon in this range, and the GK is the listing that covers it. If you are trimming the interior in a warm neutral and the 345mm pitch fits the car, two GK seats are the practical option. There is no other colour in the GK range, and no other beige recliner in the 345mm bolt group.
Ordering as a pair confirms both seats come from the same production batch. Beige vinyl can vary in warmth between batches more than black does, and a mismatched pair reads clearly in person. A pair listing avoids that. Both seats are the same specification: reclining, steel frame, all heights and sizes.
Sliders for both in the box. Fitting frames purchased additionally, one per seat. 4-point harness compatible. The RK (SS 73) also offers beige but at a 405mm bolt pitch. No FIA competition approval. Part number SS87LC-X2.
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.
