About the Recaro airbags situation, this is from one of their official web pages:
"Universal side airbag
The following statistics show how important side airbags have become: 10 years ago, only 5% of all new vehicles came equipped with a side airbag. The number is now 95%.
RECARO Automotive Seating is the first and only manufacturer in the world to offer aftermarket seats with a universal side airbag."
I don't know how Recaro airbags systems would work in a RAV. They also make adapter mounting kits and others are available, sometimes even via Ebay. The main drawbacks for me are the prices for the seats themselves and possible side clearance issues in a RAV. Whether one wants to pay the cost depends upon the degree of discomfort one has with the OEM RAV seats. :wink
