They have a huge choice in fabrics and will trim them to your request.
They are all made to order and you can have additional options such as:
Extended Width
2 way and 4 way adjustaable Lumbar support
2 way electric lumbar support
Extended leg support
Electric reclining
Heated seats
Konig also have the most comprehensive range of direct replacement subframes in the market.
A couple of examples bellow.






The last 2 seats arent cheap at all, but are FIA approved and only weigh between 3.3kg and 5KG!!!!

Well I will give you the basic seat RRPs as the pricing will vary between spec etc.

K5000 model (top 2 seats) RRP at £395
RS1000 and RS2000 (3rd and 5th Seats) retail at £595 and £750 trimmed in velour and weigh from 3.5kg to 5KG
The RS3000 (the last seat) retail at £995 and weigh between 3.3kg and 3.4kg
The CP700 (4th seat) retails at £275
All prices above were per seat and exclusive of subframes.
Subframes for a Corsa B retail at £70 each.

ALL the prices are the RRP's and I will be approx 20% cheaper on the seats however the subframes i wont be able to discount.

So for the top 2 seats as a group buy including sub frames youd be looking at about £780 in total.

Too much for me i think

I wouldnt doubt that for a minute but for less than half that price you can get equally nice seats that are comfortable, Maybe not as comfortable but still good day to day seats.

Iv sat in Konigs, Recaro's,Cobra's, Corbeaus, Rage etc and i wouldnt say paying close to a grand is worth it for the Konig's , Sorry.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion mate!
But certainly wouldnt class Konig or either Recaro seats in the same league as Corbra, Corbeau and certainly not rage!!

I agree, There nowhere near the same league as each other, By far!!

There excellent seats , Just not the type of money i, and im guessing others , are wanting to spend on seats.

Just my opinion though mate, I dont know shit.

There are 6 different places in Glasgow alone who want between £150.00 and £250.00 for both seats retrimmed in genuine leather.

Ive seen ripped dirty pairs off sidewinders on ebay go for £100

A pair of corsa b subframes is £150 from cobra

And i can get a full retrim including dash door cards and rear seats for £400
In leatherette in jack smiths in swansea.

http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=338931

example of letherette in my mates 206 in that thread

So for £650 i can get a whole interior with sidewinders instead of just two seats lol
