yeah, cheers guys. I'm well pleased with them. Was causing a major headache on Friday and Saturday but after having words with tstaboy's brother and taking a good look at his set-up on Sunday, all is well. Haven't taken it for a test drive yet!:eek:
 
I'm keeping the seatbelts in for now. I only got one harness due to I need the back seat facilty (huge amp to carry round!) so the passenger needs a standard belt. Which is why, Bushboy, I can't strip the back :(
 
Si looks funny in his seats!! He looks dead low....like a kid in a booster seat :p Just see his spiked mop peeking over the top of the seats!! :D

Not anymore. I sit well high in them now. I mounted them differently now!

No tilting seat, but if i slide it as far forward as poss, can squeeze through:)

Dawn, didn't know you had new seats?!:eek:
 
to be honest, it doesn't do a good job for me cos of my size. I'm sure it'd be the same for you too cos you have a similar build to me. Other seats may be better with standard belts though. Mine are the OMP Ronco 2. I haven't tried adapting the seatbelt yet (like feeding it through the harness holes in the seats), that's a job for next week!lol
 
When you had the drivers seat in on Sunday I thought it was quite comfy. I've sat in some horrible ones. I guess the test of comfort is days like Sunday.
As you suggested, i'm saving up to get the car dropped with a full suspension kit (rather than just springs) possibly at the end of the summer and then its time for the seats!
Your seats look good and didn't feel too bad and I guess the adjustable cushion is a bonus. I quite like the Corbeau Forza Sports. They come in Yellow too! hehe.

I'm sure feeding the belt will be fun. lol. Probably get right in the way if you still want access to the rear. Shouldn't be too bad.
I bet there is more legroom in the back now due to the shape of the seats?
 
yeah, bags of room. Just make sure large people don't try to get in the back!lol. It's so weird driving in the new seats now. I'm about 6" higher than it was on Sunday. I was kinda getting used to the low set up!lol. Still feels really good driving in such a rigid position. I feel much more part of the car. I'll try driving tomorrow with the std belt on to see how that feels!!!:eek:
