i couldnt find any on ebay, and when i do come across some there around 4-500$ cause there in perfect shape or there in horrible shape and i dont want to spend that much. and also need a matching back seat cause im taking out my white seats to put in either black or grey.

arizen buys their seats from the same manufacturer as MAD does they just charge twice as much because they market them for fbodies

here is a thread debating MAD vs Arizen

if all you want are nice replacement seats, with some more support, and a little race look, then get the mad racing. if you plan on any kind of real racing, either road or drag, and need a seat for saftey/control, then id get the arizen, which is what im doing. i dont have a good back, so ill probably need the lumbar, and im almost 100% sure you cant get a sub belt slot in mad racing.....which ill need when i install a 5pt harness.

i do like the second pic you posted, they look just like the arizens.....much better then the open back ones. again, if all you want are looks/little more support, i dont think you can go wrong with mad racing. for that price, how can you?
