Default Kirkey drag seat question for manual trans guys

How's the shifting with your pro drag or other Kirkey seat? Been looking into a set, but the sides make me think that it'll affect my shifting some. Thanks.

Fun video to watch, thanks for posting it. Gonna give some more thought on this for other reasons, but one of my concerns seems to have evaporated.

i have a kirkey that is similar to the pro street but its something else. anyways, the right side is bent inward to leave room for shifting. the left side by your leg is slightly bent outward as well. they are smart guys making these seats!

how hard is it to make these seats fit into a 4th gen? are they comfortable enough for street driving? sorry for the thread jack, im lookin into some of these seats also to drop some more weight...
