I almost bought one of these at Kragen yesterday.

I wasnt sure about how I'd go about installing it though.

Check out my cardomain, 300 for the set plus brackets. Nice quality construction. Got them at pep boys, nice firm race seat feel. A little lighter than stock but not reccomended as a weight savings mod on a real race car. And they do have recline but no quick release forward for a rr seat passenger which would be in convienient if I had a back seat that was usable which I dont due to my harness bar.

This is a nice compromise over $1000 touring seats or $500 fixed tubular cloth covered racing seats.

--Sparco Torino's
--Ordered them from Sparco
--$650 each...EACH
--I LOVE them. They are great for small framed people. They really hug your shoulders and keep you feeling comfortable during hard turns.
--VERY well made. Fading is the only problem

Make an adapter bracket out of small box tubing. Mount the seat to the adapter and the adapter to the original frame. This is what I did and I've still got the 6-way power adjustable.
