Default Opinion please

Anybody know or have opinions on the quality of these seats from Jegs? Summit has the same type and style for about same price.

I know about Sparco, Recaro, and Corbea but they cost nearly twice as much and sometimes you don't always get what you pay for.

I don't want lightweight racing seats as the car will be a two seat street/strip car rather than full race. So I want seats where there are slots for seat belts like these rather than my stock seats which have none. I have removed the rear seat.

When I go to the strip, I will also remove the passenger seat and install a computer stand like this.

Well you don't need to remove the passenger seat to run that comp set up.. check out afterthoughts..----> As far as I know those seats will work but I have heard that the foam will crap out on you and make the "budget" seats twice as expensive when you have to replace them in 6 months. You can find used seats (Corbeau, Recaro Spacro.. ) on ebay for the price of the summit/jegs seats new, You also might need to get brackets which can be pricey. I got Corbeau's and feel that I have gotten more than what I paid for.. They are now sponsoring me and all my other cars will have their seats in them. (Corbeau gives me a discount which makes the "budget" seats seem f**kin expensive... good luck
