Default Show me your aftermarket seats!!!!

Seats are going to be my next mod. Most likely Cobra Sidewinders or one of the Sparco offerings. My biggest question for those of you who have gone with aftermarket seats is if the sit higher or lower than stock. I'm 6'4" and don't want my seat to sit any higher.

Post some pix and let me know what you bought and how they fit.

Bride Ergos, definately sits lower and alot more snug...actually a little too snug for a daily driver, especially on long rides. If I go on road trips longer than 2 hours, I have to get out a stretch for a few mins.

Here is mine...Corbeau CR1s. They sit a little higher than stock thought, but are the best fitting race type seats I have sat in. And they cost less than most too...

Sparco Monzas. Sit a little lower than stock. They are also a little wider than most aftermarket seats, but provide much better support and are much more comfortable than stock.

Pretty damn comfy, but if you have a +34 waste or large structure, or you like to keep your legs spread wide apart... Look into something else.
