Default Help me find new seats that won't break the bank...

Hey guys, it's soon going to be new seat time for my '98 Z28. My factory "neutral" leather seats are beginning to show an embarrassing amount of wear.

Curious as to what you replaced your seats with or what you'd like to replace yours with.

I have power seats and would like to retain all of my associated creature comforts.

Anyone?

$912 is going to be "breaking the bank" also, but thanks anyway.

Friend of mine just put corbeau TRS's in his cobra and he loves them. He's had a lot of different sets of seats, and said these are byfar the most comfortable he's had. By the way, this is Brad from Thunder, wasn't sure if you knew my name on here.

Yep, didn't know it Brad. Good to hear from you buddy.
Hey, how about it? One more week and finals are all over.

I'm looking for a set of seats that I can still use my power seat mechanism with (doesn't have to include lumbar), and can get out for around $500. Maybe that'll help.

I'll look into the Corbeau seats, but something tells me they'll be slightly out of my price range.

Tainted did, sorry to hear about that by the way. That is why sometimes I don't even respond to some people questions, even if I know the answer because I would have to give out a non-sponsor link. Get some pics and a sig back up man. And put up the CF jingle one more time as a new name.

Don't encourage the stupidity please.

What's rediculous is that the child can't follow simple instuctions directly from the owner of this site. He even posted in the thread detailing the rules!

A non-sponsor link is OK as long as none of our sponsors sell the ****, come on guys. But IIRC, a few of our sponsors sell HEADERS.

So what if you make an honest mistake? I have adblock on I don't even know who any of the sponsors are.

Sounds like you need not post any type of contact/pricing info, just to be safe.

Theres a difference between an honest mistake, and downright disrespect. Like I said........... he KNEW what he was doing....

You said your on a budget right?

Well I think it would look really good to get your seats recovered with black leather, LT1 style. Looks really good. You don't need to buy new seats. IMO
