you've missed guides in 2 mags recently on seats.

Depends what ur looking for CP. True buckets or reclining race seats.

The corbeau forza's get lots of good press for a pure bucket seat.

As for recliners the cobra daytona is one of the best. The cobra sidewinders look nice but don't really hold you in your seat (too wide).

Things to look for is how well the seat fits you. Whether they have removable cushions (for cleaning or swapping). and also if they have wear pads on the sides for (entry and exit).

if u want more info let me know and i'll dig out the mag reviews tonight.

When mine are finished i'll sort a pic, mine are true buckets, removable cushions, they are widely used in rallying, but dont have the big(expensive) cobra/corbeau name.

He will also make them in the size YOU want and to your specifications, mine are being done in leather.

Mine are motordrive and are relativly cheap for the spec as you don't pay for the name. Make sure you get the drivers seat in the correct width so it holds you sungly, and more importantly get an extra wide one for the passenger side to accomodated an amply female posterior. ;)

I've heard thin narrow ones give a bit of a harsh ride. I s'pose fatter ones have more vibration damping and therefore give a smoother ride ;)
Just a thought - anyone proved it one way or another - I wouldn't know as I'm too young and have had a sheltered upbringing:D

Depends if you like comfort or speed, I think I have an ideal set up in that our lass can't get in the drivers seat, somtimes I wish she couldn't get in the passenger one either ;). She's not fat ian she's just hippy :D, she wouldn,t let me get the narrow one because it made her bum look big. If she reads this I'm dead.

too young hey! lol. The main difference seems to be material and weight. Mine are about 7.5kg each, but the ?800 ones are made of carbon fibre and weigh about 3kg.

MC, I'm starting to think your cars got anoerexia or summink. Its losing weight noticeably everytime I see it - bit like Gerri Halliwell!
You'll be drilling holes in the body next!
I take it that the carbon fibre seats are on order?
