I've had them in my car for lol over two years and they have been great , I love them , but if you are "heavy set" then you may not be comfortable in them

I'm also curious how well people like them. I already ordered a set so i guess I'll be finding out soon enough. I just thought they looked better than anything else in the same price range.

Are we all referring to the MRC seats?



my brother has a set of the fiberglass/cloth seats made by mrc (same company that makes the seats above) (6le is one of their distributors)

anyway, i can attest to their quality... very well put together stuff

I mounted it to the new seat bracket I use for the seats. Drilled a hole and secured with bolts and washers.

Im 6,2 40" waist 235 and they are fine for me but if I gained another 30-40# it would start getting uncomfortable

Mark stays pretty busy but he will get back to you
If you have any other question feel free to pm me as I don't roam this section very often

I'm a bit bigger than this so curious to know how they fit if you do buy them.

Also, is red the only other stitching available? Just curious.
