Default bucket vs reclineable seats in a dd

who has bucket seats in their dd?
how is it?
is it much of a sacrifice in not having the luxury of reclining?

any other opinions between the two? (b/c i cant think of anymore questions at the moment)

i currently have buckets in my dd. they're really comfy, it's just a pain to get in and out of the car. i had to slide the seat all the way back to get out, and then slide it all the way back up to reach the pedals.

with a quick release hub it makes it easier, but then you sacrafice your airbag on a dd car.

i have reclineables on the way and i will keep one of my buckets for track days.

i have buckets in my dd. moroccan mole (haha did you used to watch 2 stupid dogs?) is right about how theyre comfy but hard to get into. all the passengers i have somewhat hurt themselves if theyve never ridden in the car before. i know at times i regret having them... but that all goes away when i take a freeway ramp at 80 mph 0=)

but in all seriousness.. if you can deal with the hassle of it being harder to get in n out and not being able to change positions while driving, its really comfortable on the body.

I have them in mine as well. People tend to complain more about climbing over the cage to get in and out than the seats though.
