I don't have a camera handy so, here is some video.

KIRKEY'S

Nice, Light, and Comfy.

What do you guys think? Sorry, the car is a bit dirty in the video .

Looks awesome! Can you give some details on what type brackets you used? I have the same Kirkey seats, and was going to use the I/O Port brackets to put them in.

I just fabbed up a set of brackets with some 1/2" square tube, a sawzall, and a welder. The lump hammer is just part of my fab tool.

Nice, which model Kirkeys are those?

I hear the Pro Street ones are very comfortable.

Yup, Kirkey Pro Street seats 18" wide with the Velour seat covers. Very Comfortable!

Ordered then from Summit Racing for $440.00

Nice. Can we get a closeup of the brackets? I thought they were $125 something apiece? Maybe I'm wrong. Or thinking of something else.

Sweet looking seats man. How is the side support with those? Do you think they would hold you in good say for autocross or roadracing?

The seats are about $125 each, the seat covers are about $85 each.

The side support is fantastic. They deffiantly hold you in place.
