25611, Racing Seat
Posted by BlitzdEclipse99, Jul-01-02 01:03 AM
I'm wanting to get a set of seats for my car, but they're so damn expensive. Here's what I'm thinking and I want your opinion: Go ahead and buy 1 seat now to replace the driver seat, then buy the 2nd one when I get the cash. Will this look dumb? Should I just wait? Here's the one I'm getting so let me know what you think.

Somebody should make a bracket that hinges foreward, so so non-reclinable seats swing foreward. I'll bet the top of the seat would hit the headliner though... DAMN!!!!!
OR!!!! Make a bracket that swivels the seat in circles! That would be cool!!:P

I think you could get 2 of some other brand for what you'd pay for 1 momo seat. I want corbeau carreras. They run around 850 a set usually.

NO DON'T DO IT! save yourself some money at least. If it takes you a longgggg time to buy the other seat then, buy the driver seat first.
But if you're gonna save not so long then, wait for the pair. Shipping the pair is the same price as shipping a single seat. I made this mistake when i was buying my bodykit in pieces. Could've saved me a couple of hundred. Money saved is money EARDED!

This is true...the seat isn't gonna go ne where. And will it be worth paying more for the shipping later??? That is the question you have to ask yourself. I would wait since I work hard for my money...I spend it wisely. But the seat looks damn good and if you want it and can't wait and don't mind the money later than get it. Hey btw what is the color of your interior??? Did you already custom paint your interior blue and yellow? aight peace. my $5.00

AHHHHH, the sweetness of the 1000 lakes, I have 2 carbon Kevlar ones, have you sat in the seats yet, they are quite snug, i really like them, but i had to make custom mounts. I opted to side mount my seats because it is much stronger this way. you lose the convienience of having the slider, but hey if you are going to get racing seats, then you shouldn't have to worry about convienience. nobody sits in the back of my car now. hhee
