I'm going to leave it in all summer and I plan on putting the stock seat back in the winter.. I love it for any ride up to 3-4 hours but I think much longer than that and I would have to take a break beacuse it forces a very good posture so its hard to relax in the seat.

yes, even with an offer of $13,000 I decided I like my car too much to sell it.

anybody in the area is welcome to try it - I think that anybody much over 6' will not like it because it does not go back as far.

anybody got a contact or way I can get some cheap factory floormats?

I just went for a little ride again and I can't repeat enough times that a racing seat is not just for looks or comfort.. it connects you to your tires and I can feel exactly what they are thinking

Looks great. Is the slider/bracket custom made?

the slider is from momo and the bracket that connects from the slider to the stock holes is custom welded.

who do you think was my inspiration to get a racing seat five?

looks OK.

I was thinking of doing the same thing some time ago, but then I thought..."If I get one seat...its going to look dopey with the stock passenger seat."

Now I have confirmation

But seriously, looks good. Now save up for the second seat and make them twins, like cheston did.

The seat looks like an OK match for the interior. if you had cloth it would have been an even better one though. Good thing you didnt get "MOMO Red"

I paid around $800 for the seat and all the other stuff needed to install (this includes custom welded brackets to fit the stock holes

you just need to dive faster to your destinations so that you don't have to sit in the seat as long.
