Looks pretty chunky to me, any idea of the weight of each seat?
Pretty pricey too, and it would be even more expensive when it landed in Australia.

Yeah, they looks pretty chunky...but sexy :), I dont think they will be any lighter than OEM seats.

Andy, I love your seat...how much did you paid for it?

AB7, I bought it from Philip Lee in this forum a while ago.
He was selling the seat and the rail for $650 all up.
I don't know what the Australian RRP is, you can PM Philip Lee and ask him about it.

But then again, it'd probably be cheap enough to just add some padding to the NB8A seats if I get them retrimmed in leather.

I think I just need to sit in other people's cars more :P


Go for the NB8B seats I'd say, they look sexy.



Thanks for the feedback guys, been looking into it, a pair of Mazdaspeed recliners seats will be on the shopping list from Japan, just need to find a place here first so I can sit in them?
