Default What do you think of these seats?

Anyone know anything about these seats http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NETAM...06988678QQrdZ1 , looking to replace the stockers. Suggestions for other seats are appreciated, just not to pricey.

Negative ghostrider. The Rice pattern is full. Instead, go with some Corbeaus. They are relatively cheap, and provide great support/comfort.

My mom always taught me that if you can't say something nice about something, then don't say anything at all, so...

The driver seat isnt upright, just the passenger. That was right after I put them in so they aren't adjusted to where I like them.

I love the seats, the only downside is they "creak" a bit compared to the stock seats, and you feel the road through them more.. both results of less padding. I think they're comfy as hell though and love how they hold me when I canyon carve. When I get another car, this will be the first mod.

Ok, I've narrowed my choice down to three. Help decide between these...

1. A4 in suede: http://corbeau.com/products/a4/a4.shtml#

2. CR1 in Black: http://corbeau.com/products/cr1/cr1.shtml#

3. TSR in leather: http://corbeau.com/products/trs/trs.shtml#

I have the cloth A4's. I couldn't justify the price for the leather ones. I think they're the best choice for a Mustang in terms of sizing.

My advice: find a local Corbeau seller who has the seats on premesis. Sit in them, and pick the one you like the best. Its the only way to really tell if you like how it feels. I'd never buy a seat without sitting in it first.

No.2 looks sharp but you cant go wrong with three.

I work for a Mitsubishi dealership and the EVO has some of the nicest recarro. I honestly would go with those. I sit in those things and feel myself heading to heaven. LOL

Evo's have great seats, but aftermarket recaros cost twice what Corbeau's do.

The suede seats are very nice. The suede is such a good looking seat. Not only do they have the A4 but they will have the Legacy, CR1 and others in suede. I think that will be in the short future though.

You can have the 2000 Cobra R recarro seats for 2500 from FORD. I think you can find em online for 1700 for both.

I know there are several people with summit racings vinyl racing seats over on stangnet and they seem to be very happy with them and the price is great at 220 a piece for black. They look nice and supposed to be great quality vinyl that is close to a leather.
