No offense but I think the words "knockoff" and "Ebay" says it all. Sometimes you get what you pay for. I don't think I'd cheap out on seats

 

Get a pair of authentic fixed Sparco seats. Some are relatively affordable like the R100 or Chrono 2.

 

I would ask on the civic forums, they will have a lot more experience with them.

 

my guessing you want knock offs just for looks?

 

if you want cheap get some metal buckets from like summit. alot cheaper and actually have fia cert's expect them to be very uncomfortable though

 

+1 on the R100 you can get a set shipped for a little over 600 bucks

 

Think I might go with cipher racing seats..got pretty good reviews from what I have read. Thanks.

 

I don't understand why someone would cheap out for their safety?

 

Red Sparco Fighters!!! Super comfy, sexy and awesome. I wouldn't do knock off's. The seat is the last thing you want to break if you're in a wreck.

 

no, and if you are smart you would not buy stuff like that on ebay.

 

THIS! ^

x hundreds of millions.

 

I recommend sticking with a manufacturer that produces FIA certified seats. Even if you buy one of their non certified seats (which are cheaper), at least you know the company knows how to make a proper seat.

Seats are a safety item first and foremost. Style is secondary to safety. We do carry Cipher seats, but I'd recommend an OMP or a lower end Sparco for just a bit more money than the Ciphers.

Take a look at our seat selection on the website. There's also a few more seats that we can get for you that may not be on the website yet, so feel free to ask. Also, if you PM me I can take care of your order personally and we can usually give forum members more competitive pricing.

^ that. you people want to die or something? i got a sparco sprint for 250 shipped once, get that or keep your stock seats. actually do what you want, the world can afford to lose a few cheap people.

but seriously, if you ever want to do some motorsports you need an approved seat.
