The Recaro double locking sliding runner, part REC364954, is Recaro’s universal fore-aft slider for base-mount seats. It gives 220mm of travel and uses a double locking mechanism: the lever disengages both the top and bottom locking points simultaneously, which prevents the single-latch failures that sometimes affect cheaper runners under hard braking. The locking is positive and audible, which matters in competition use where you need to know the seat is fixed.

These runners are primarily used in kit cars and custom builds where no vehicle-specific sub-frame exists, or as a standalone slider to adapt a seat to an existing bracket or sub-frame that does not include its own sliding mechanism. They are also listed as compatible with Cobra, Corbeau, Sparco, and OMP motorsport seats on side-mount installations, provided the base width is approximately 405mm, which is the standard spacing for most of those brands.

Recaro base-mount reclining seats and base-mount bucket seats are the native application. The runners will also work with Cobra base-mount reclining seats. They will not suit side-mounted competition shells without being used alongside the specific Recaro side-mount adaptor. This product is not car-specific and professional fitment is recommended for any application where the seat mounting is load-bearing in an accident. Pricing covers one runner, which fits one seat. Order two for both sides of the car. At 469 sales this is the most popular fitting product in the Recaro range we carry, which reflects its usefulness across a wide range of projects.

Seat runner and slider guide

Sliding runners let you move a fixed back bucket seat forwards and backwards. There is one thing everybody gets wrong about them, and it is worth clearing up before you look at the range.

The millimetres are the handle width, not the travelA 405 mm runner does not move further than a 291 mm runner. Every runner here gives the same fore and aft adjustment. The figure in the title is the width of the handle bar that spans underneath the seat, and you pick it to match the width of the shell you are fitting. All three Corbeau options are the same price, which is the giveaway.

Match the handle width to the seat

Measure across the underside of your seat between the two mounting rails, or check the seat width the manufacturer quotes. Then pick the runner whose handle spans it.

Handle width Sold as What it suits
290 mm Retro and Sportline Narrow shells and classic seats
291 mm Cobra, Corbeau The common narrow option
320 mm Motorsport STD Standard width bucket seats
345 mm Corbeau A step up from standard
370 mm Motorsport L Wider shells
405 mm Motorsport XL, Cobra, Corbeau The widest we stock

If you are between two, go by the seat rather than by preference. A handle that is too narrow will not reach the rails and one that is too wide will foul the tunnel or the sill.

Runners made for a specific seat

Some kits are built for one shell rather than sold by width. If your seat is on this list, that kit is the easier answer.

Brand Seats Notes
Tillett B5, B8, B9 Runner kits made for those shells
Recaro Pro Racer SPA and SPG, standard and XL Two widths, matched to the shell
Sparco P1300GT and P1300GT LW Base mount kit, quotes a seat width
Cobra Nogaro Sliding fitting kit for that seat
Endurance Sparco and Recaro compatible Aftermarket kits to suit those shells
Check the fixing type firstThe Sparco and Endurance runner kits are written for base mounted seats and quote a seat width rather than a handle width. A side mount seat needs side mounts and a subframe, not a base runner. Read our seat mounting and fixing points guide if you are not sure which yours is.

What a runner costs you

Height

A runner sits between the seat and the subframe, so it lifts you. In a car with a cage and a helmet that is the first thing to check, because the few centimetres it adds is exactly the amount you did not have spare. If you are tall, work out your headroom before you commit to running sliders at all.

Rigidity

A fixed seat bolted straight to a subframe is the stiffest way to mount it. A runner adds a moving joint. It is entirely normal for road and track day use, and it is why a lot of competition cars do without.

Sharing the car

The obvious reason to fit them. If two drivers use the car, or you drive it to the circuit and someone else drives it home, runners are worth the height and the weight. If it is your car and only yours, bolting the seat where you want it is simpler and lower.

Tell us the seat and we will match the runnerThe seat make and model, and whether it is side mount or base mount. The handle width has to match the shell and it is quicker for us to check than for you to measure it twice. Call 0115 989 3488 or email Sales@GSMPerformance.co.uk.

Widths and compatibility read from our own product data, checked 2 August 2026. All runners in this range give the same fore and aft adjustment.

Will this fit my car?
This frame is car-specific, so match the vehicle in the product name to your exact car and generation. If you are unsure, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.

Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.

Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Recaro frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.

Availability

Recaro seats are produced in batches for the UK market

We receive Recaro deliveries regularly and hold good stock of the popular models, so many go out quickly.

Demand for the bucket seats is worldwide and production runs to Recaro’s own schedule, so the less common models and trims can take considerably longer. Ask us and we will tell you where a specific seat stands.

Before you order

If you need a seat for a date, ring us first. We would rather give you an honest lead time up front than have you waiting on a seat that is between production runs.
