New S3 Recaro Seats

[Spook]

Can anyone confirm whether the Recaros on the new S3 have the side impact airbag built into them? Looking at pictures of the seats, this doesn't appear to be the case.

If they don't have airbags, isn't this as good a reason as any to save £1600 when speccing the car?

i would of thought that they would have side impact airbag built into them!!! wouldnt make any sense not to!

if they are the same as the r32 then there's no air bag

That wouldn't put me off having um... (please no abuse about why you think you should have um - sure they'd make up for not having them in the seats by having um else where).
