I think I could quite easily fall asleep in those. Damn comfy looking.

Look very nice, dont think I could have seats like that in a road car though, I'd prefer to have the back of my head in tact after an accident

 

Looks like you better get round mine and have a look then mate!

Each to their own mate

Probably would look better without the stitching actually, but still like them.

 

?

Cheers for the comments everyone BTW!

 

yeah, i never got that one either

 

think he's referring to the plastic inserts (if they are plastic) that the harness goes through, but I think your head would actually rest just above the harness holes.

I still think they're 'the bollox'

yeh im on about the inserts, tbh they are'nt as bad. Some are right at the top like the rs focus and honda ctr

 

Aha.

Yeah your head rests just above the holes and they're only made of plastic, so can't see any major head damage factors there.

 

probably a hell of a lot safer than your boggo standard head rest.

 

Chris H:

Here's the pics you wanted mate; the 1st one shows the frame and a mounting point for one side of the lap harness; the other is where the ends mount to by the rear seatbelt clips:

I can't really get a good camera angle to take better pics of the frames I'm afraid.

 

clean carpet

 

so how does the foam feel? whats the quality of the leather
like? and how sturdy is the stitching?

 

The foam is slightly harder than the standard seats as they're new, no doubt over time they'll soften up a bit. As for the quality of the leather, Fantastic! Very supple and well stitched - No stitching errors at all!

Very pleased all in all!

 

I picked up a pair the same as Russ in the group buy - just bin tidying up the fitment tonight. They bring a smile to my face everytime i open the doors ! well worth the wait!

firm
very good
excellent

Russ you agree?

 

Agreed!

Have you decided what to spend your 50 voucher on yet?

 

i'm not sure whether to get some crystal indicators for the front or not??

still undecided as to what to do with the rear seats as well - have to say i'm loving the look of your polished roll cage and no rear bench though............hmmmmm decisions

 

lol bucket seats are ten thousand times safer in accidents just because of the overall support they give you.

 

plus with the head rest actuall up against your head they no doubt help a million times in preventing whip lash

sweet seats if only i wasnt a poor student whos car had a million and one other jobs that needed doing before spending n such luxuries

stil, one day
