Im looking for seats for my cav im juts getting an idea as to what everyone has and how they liek them i know about sparcos recaros and otto r's but what do you have? what brand? how much did you pay for them? and what is your opinion on them?
Corbeau TRS seats with Custom Corbeau brackets.
Feel great. Paid ALOT. Replacable padding too.
u know what i had....but i got rid of them. im going back to stock and having them reupholstered. i think the stockers are comfy.
idk, i may end up with different racing seats, but as of now i plan on the reupholstery
how do i make custom brackets...
Not to thread jack or anything....but i didn't see the need to start a separate thread to ask this.
Does anyone have (or know of any) seats that have a quick tilt feature? Reason being, i have people in my back seat occasionally, and was trying to find seats that tilt forward more like the stock seats for easy access.
I know the corbeau's do. They have the lever on the side of the seat. They do not have anything in the back for people to push on though. They would have to reach around the side of the seat.
Any of the aftermarket seats that have the lever on the side instead of the adjustment knob can tilt forward fast. They most likely will not tilt forward as far forward as a stock seat though due to the side bolsters. They will hit each other.
well somthing else you can look into is swapping seats from another car. i pulled some rsx seats out of an 03, and i fell in love..... they are very comforable, and i only paid 150 for them out of a wrecked rsx...
How well did the rsx seats fit into your cavy? Did you have to custom fabricate some brackets or did they bolt in?
Yonaka Ronin Synthetic Leather Seats from Aplus. $350Cdn or something like that shipped here. I like them but if your "big" they might be a little tight for you. I'm 6'3 185lbs so im not huge but they do hug my quite nicely.

x2 plus, do you have any pics of the seats in the car??
I have the Yonaka Samurai's I love 'em, have had 'em for a year and a half almost, paid $150, brand new they're like $300 I think? Great seats.
I had Corbeau A4s and they were quick release, comfy, and looked nice..
Only problem is they are a bitch to keep the cloth clean, but I loved them

Dodge SRT-4 seats. Can find them used for decent prices sometimes, but they are a royal PIA to install.

BINGO! I like the idea of a better looking factory seat over a racing seat, because the value to quality ratio seems to be a lot better... I am currently using some seats out of a newer style Celica, and love them! Can't say what I paid realy cuz they were kinda free... bought the car, took the seats, hood, steering wheel and strut tower brace, returned the car to stock and sold it for $400 more than I paid.... but as far as quality, they are amazing, very comfy and look damn good too! Check ur local wrecker for seats that will fit before buying some I think.... my opinon anyway
On the other hand....you have other fingers.
I just bought a 20 inch widescreen ultrasharp flat pannel..I'm going to have to subscribe to the high quality porn places now......damn
my seats are from a wrecked 2003 mazdaspeed protge with 20,000 miles on it, there where only 3000 of them ever built, but if you can find a set there really comfy they also have height and lumbar adjustment on them.
i paid $60 for both fronts and the rear, but i work at a wrecker. i think other wreckers where selling them for $200-$500 EACH!!!
you can pretty much use bucket seats out of any car, provided there not too wide.
RSX,lancer,mx-3,celica,civic SI,if you can find them STI seats would be sweet!!!
i believe mitsu eclipse seats will fit too. none of them are bolt in you will need to fab brackets.

yonaka Ronin cloth black once i just got them today cant wait to have them in my car
Not to thread jack, but when you guys ordered your Corbeau's, who did you go through. None of the know JBO companies have them listed on their sites.

I have those same seats from A plus and I love them. I am 6'5 210 and at first they were kinda tight but after haveing them for a little while they have form to me a little better.
I LOVE THESE SEATS!!!!!!
