Default Sparco buckets, come in!

Hey guys, those of you that own any type of Sparco bucket, how happy are you with them? If you have one on the passanger, do you lose the use of your glove box behind the seat? How is the ride highet? Higher or lower than stock?

Thanks for the info, I need new seats badly, so will be buying soon!

i love my Sparcos. if you dont get rails, the glove box behind the passenger will be harder to get to- what i did was remove one of the pins, and use a velcro latch to hold the door in place-

as a suggestion, dont use the Side mount, rails, and brackets that sparco sells.

use that money and get CUSTOM rails/mounts.. trust me.
the height with the sliders, side mount and brackets from sparco will put your seat too high if u plan on using a helmet-

I've got Torino 2's. They sit a little lower. No trouble getting into passenger compartment. Memory foam makes for a comfortable ride, not hard like the OEM seats.

Thanks guys. I was actually considerin the Roadster 2 or Fighter line. Im just worried about ride hight. I come in at 6' and 180 lbs. I just want something that would be fairly decent for occosinal track events, and daily driven.

Thanks for the help and suggestions! Think im going to order this week unless someone really has bad news about them.

Thanks again!
