Default New Racing Seat Samples in CT.

We will be offering a few new reclinable seats and a fixed seat by June. I have samples of 3 of the 4 in Uncasville CT if anyone is interested in seeing them in person. I installed a power lumbar in the first model shown today and it works great!

seats look nice but what are the options to match 99 z28 cloth interior, black seats would not look that good.

We haven't tried matching o/e cloths because there are so many that are very similar with just slight pattern variances. It is very difficult to match the cloth even when you have the vehicle in front of you because the sample books they send have little samples less than an inch square and you can't see patterns in a peice that small. To custom upholster seats in the o/e cloth would probably be too pricey for most people and there would be the disadvantage of not being able to swap them into another vehicle if desired.

What are most people you see putting in a car like yours when they buy seats?

We only have black leather and black cloth coming in June. Custom upholstery is possible like on our old model shown on the site but more expensive. The top seat weighs about 32 lbs. The bottom seat I don't have the specs on yet.

We'll have a fixed seat that weighs about 16 lbs in black leather or black cloth - some with red stitching. We designed a way to bolt them to C5/C6 tracks and Mustang tracks. These best fit people maybe 34" waists and less. I can fit in them with a 37" waist for track use but wouldn't want them for a daily driver.

I can't say for sure. We had a power seat bracket from a 99-04 Mustang and a C5 Vette and we designed a mounting system that would work with both. It may work with a Camaro too but I don't have anything to test on. I would think it would be possible.
