The Mercedes-Benz SEC is a coupe body built on the S-Class of its era. The W116 SEC ran from 1972 to 1980, covering the 280 SE 3.5 and 350 SE, and the W126 SEC ran from 1981 to 1991 across the range from 280 to 560. Both are large, rear-wheel-drive grand tourers that were the most prestigious Mercedes product of their generation. The W126 in particular is considered one of the most durable Mercedes ever built and carries significant collector value.

Part number 854019-1872 covers the W116 and W126 SEC. It attaches at the factory floor fixing positions in the front row without drilling and provides fore-aft running adjustment. The W116 and W126 use related floor geometry from Mercedes’ classic-era rear-wheel-drive platform, which is why Recaro produced a single sub-frame covering both generations.

Fitting a Recaro seat to a W116 or W126 SEC is a period-correct upgrade. Recaro was already an OEM fitment in many European performance cars of the 1970s and 1980s, and the seats were well known in the German market during the W126’s production run. A W126 with Recaro seats is not an anachronism; it is historically plausible.

This sub-frame fits Recaro seats only and covers base-mountable bucket seats and reclining sport seats. Side-mounted competition shells need separate hardware. Pricing is for one frame, one position. Contact us with your Recaro model and chassis variant when ordering.

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. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. 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.

In-store displays:

We have a premium range of over 125 seats from brands including: Bimarco, Cobra, Corbeau, Sparco, OMP, Recaro, GP-Race, and Bride to name just a few brands we work with.

Alongside this, we also stock and display HANS devices, harnesses, race-wear, race-suits, FIA helmets and various other safety equipment. If you are looking to visit us to see and try any particular seat or product, please contact us in advance and we’ll be happy to help.

In-Store appointments:
