Subesports has them for $1,400 a seat and the brackets are $125 each...so $3,050 before shipping from them.

Are you going to do a write-up on these? I heard you have to modify the brackets to get them to fit just right and a how-to would help.

Good lord man, you haven't had that car much more than 6 months and look how far you have come.

Can't wait till the holidays are over so I can spend some more money on my car.

I love those seats!! I wanted those for so long, but I could never justify paying more for my seats than for the majority of my body kit, haha.

Hats off to you for buying them though, they are the top seat on the market in my opinion.

I have these seats as well (in orange) and did a writeup a while ago. The seats are amazing, but the brackets absolutely suck @$$.

EDIT: here is a link to my writeup.



D, I would appreciate your feelings about my writeup, to see if they have made any improvements...

Thanks for all the compliments guys, I couldn't spend that much on seats either, but I got such a great deal from a member on here that I had to take them. He also had the brackets, and did some modifications and said they fit perfect. I haven't tried them out myself, but I will probably get them in Saturday and will also have a write-up on Project ActiveTuning as well.

syf0n, here's some pictures of everything for the brackets:

Here's the holes lined up:

Here's a shot of the mounting points, they had to be bent about 10 degrees

And also 3 washers needed to be added to door side of each seat (front and back)....we will be making new spacers.

Hahha those are my old seats man.

Well cool glad they went to a good person and a nice car.

Ya the brackets do suck.

The way the seat sit of them dented up my door panels pretty good.

Me and Elitemotion were the first to have the seats and used washers to tilt the seat.

This helped up to celar the seat from hitting the door panels.

They are great seats enjoy.

Those seats look nice and light, yet very uncomfortable.
