Is that passenger seat bolted down?? It looks like it sits cock-eyed a bit...
So you are planning on running different seats for racing or all together??
I LIKE the center window switch set up, very cool like a BMW!!  |
They are better than the stockers, but I was running some corbeaus. Those were nice, but not the greates for scooting around town or long trips. I'll swap the corbeaus in for track days. 8 bolts, 10 minutes, best of both worlds.
It's bolted down, but becuase of the passenger side floor pan, it sits higher than the drivers. All of them do it, I think the stockers are the only ones that sit at about the same level.

When I put the FD seats in the FB I ran into the exact problems as he did. The seats are just not dimensionally close at all. IMO. The bottoms of the seats drop down low which in turn causes the higher seating. For me at 6'2 that doesn't work well in the FB.There is o way I can get my helmet on and fit inside the car. I found that S4 seats are a direct bolt in on the passenger side. The donor car I used did not have drivers side seat rails so I made the FB rails work. I have come to hate installing seats  |
Yeah it is a PITA. In the Corbeaus I had to slouch a little with the helmet. A problem that I plan on rectifing over the winter. Something about having to slouch while racing doesn't really agree with me.
