Quick question Keith... what do you think of those seats? They have a VERY attractive price point. How's the quality of the frame, material, stitching, etc? How well did they support you on the track (and also to go with that, how tall/heavy are you?) How did the brackets/tracks work out? Did they fit the stock attachment points, were they too high or just right, do they have any slop/rock, etc? How are they holding up overall?

I like them a lot. I'm most happy with the way they match the grain on my door panels and dash pad. They have kind of an original look to them. Not obviously a racing seat. Plus, I wanted a custom logo. The frame seems to be very well made. They have a quick flip forward release and the reclining mechanism is a large knob on each side of the seat that you turn. So you can set it perfectly. You're not locked into a set of preset notches. There is also an adjustable lumbar support but I can't tell any difference when I adjust it. So far the material and the stitching seem very good. The leather in the seat seems to be stretching and a butt crease is starting to form. I don't care for that. They are very firm. The seat supports my butt very well but the upper seat back offers little to no lateral support at all even with the shoulder harnesses. I was using the steering wheel to keep myself upright in the corners. I'm 6'4" tall and weigh 185. The sliders that come with the seats are good. They're dual locking whereas the cheaper ones only lock on one side. I fabricated my own brackets to mount them to the floor. There were 1/2" spacers between the seats and the sliders that I removed to give me more headroom. They're just right for me now. There is a little bit of play in the seat backs but it's not an issue. They don't make noise or rattle while I'm driving. Bottom line is, they're a very nice seat for the money. You can customize them and have logos put on them which was important to me. I'm sure there are better quality seats out there but you're going to pay a lot more for them.
