Racing seats

Anyone have racing seats installed? If so what kind and post a picture. I'm considering installing some but can't make up my mind. Also where did you get them and what did you pay. Thanks.

jegs and summit have some that are "jegs"/"summit" brand. they look fairly nice and comfortable. in popular hot rodding they installed them in a camaro and liked them alot. they are like 220 for one i think about. they have a bunch of different colors, only bad thing is you have to figure out how to mount them. heres a link to the jegs ones....http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...19&prmenbr=361

the jegs and summit ones are junk, if you plan to drive more than a few miles at a time real racing seats suck (they are not padded well) the typical ones people install are not racing seats they are racing style and have more padding, but are still made on a plastic seat

Thanks. Still looking, really haven't seen anything I like yet that serves both comfort and style. maybe I'll just recover my existing leather seats.

yea, but you dont want some flashy gay **** with like 4 different colors and a goofy pattern. i think the best looking seats are the Jegs/ Summit ones. all black, plain, but clean and sweet looking. yes they should be comfortable too but it DOES depend how they look when you have a domestic and dotn like LOUD gay colors that dont have any coordination.

seats should be comfortable first, seat covers are cheap.Those jegs seats suck even in a quarter mile they suck (that's what was in the cutlass for a weekend)
