R3 Recaro Seat Cushions - lightly used

These came off a car from the autoshow before the car was sold... good shape.. no tears just some slight wearing on the two left bolsters. The side bolsters on the seat-back are a little deformed from sitting in the box for so long too.
$250 bucks OBO...

Ok, I'll ask the dumb question and blame it on the fact that it's 11:30 at night and I'm still working. (Well, multi-tasking at this point as my brain is pudding.)
Is his just the covers/cushions that would go onto the seat frame? Some of the frame seems to be there in the photo's. If so, would it just be replacements for somebody with damaged R3 seats?

Just curious. I badly want a set of actual R3 seats to swap into my 04, especially since the "leather" on my bolsters is starting to split, but I'm thinking these aren't exactly that. (Especially for that price. But I would take them if they were.)

I'm not sure how the seats come apart to be honest. These two parts are well over $1000 new (the entire seat is over 3 grand new) and the price is low because I know the buyer will have to either: a) adapt them to the regular rx-8 seats (if it's possible - again, not sure) or b) install them on their R3 brackets to replace some worn ones.
I would assume that these two pieces bolt onto the seat rail/frame but hopefully someone else can confirm.

edit: just to be sure... the seats are sitting on a chair in the photos so... those black arms aren't frame pieces to go with the seats. LOL

Just so you're aware I had someone on Rx7 club PM me with interest before you so I'll honour the first come-first serve unwritten law... it's only fair. I'll let you know if he backs out.

Thief I PM'd you a couple days ago saying the other buyer backed out... still want it?
I found that I can order the seat bracket/adjuster for just under $500 but it will not come with all the plastic trim. R3 Seat for under 1000 bucks anyone?
