Need adaptors and rails. Depending which recaros they are as well you may only have genuine recaro rails and sliders as an options.
Seat frame adapter there are several options. Omp are one of the cheapest.

When I looked into it last year it was going to set me back $1500 for 2 seats then another $800 just for fitting parts as they would of had to be all genuine recaro parts.

On top of that would of needed to mod plate car to 2 seater as neither of the sears could fold forwards to allow rear passengers in and out legally.

Cheaper option is go anything but recaro ;-)
Also make sure seats are adr approved. Don't know how strict they are in the rest of aus but in qld it's a major defect.

you also may have issues with mounting std seatbelts.
I'm yet to find anyone thats actually put in proper aftermarket seats with the factory belts.
