I've got a set of factory seats that I'll be happy to swap your Sparcos for ;)

They're basic black so you have no reason to look at needing another interior colour change.....

I couldn't bear to see you unable to drive the car in comfort ;)

i will let you know :)

some pains are worth living with!

and its still comfortable to a degree!

I do however carry a few pillows in the car though these days!

they were very comfy to sit in.. and big dog.. the fixed backed ones are only 1 size.. but the forza style (like bens ones) are a little wider.. i just really like the look of these.. cant wait to get them now :D

do these bolt on to the existing seat rails? or do you need to buy a new set?

For the most part, the drivers side rails can be used with only a small modification but the passenger side will need to be modified a bit more.

installed the seats today

drivers side seat rail (from the mx) went straight on.. however the passenger side needed some modification... (haha some.. more like heaps..)

HONESTLY WHO MAKE A CAR WHERE THE HOLES FOR EACH SEAT ARE DIFFERENT :P

very comfy seats.. definately a challenge to get in and out of but well worth it..
