Default Wow, Arizen has really stepped up their selection...

I do not have their seats in my car (mine are identical to their base seat but are MRC) but I still check out their site from time to time...

http://www.arizenracingsports.com/pa...zen/CTGY/Seats

They have REALLY increased their selection! You guys with more money can get a great looking seat (like what I have ! ) but COMPLETELY customized!

They offer different:

Colors
Material
BOLSTER SIZES and WIDTHS (this is hillarious but cool: http://www.arizenracingsports.com/InTheSeat.htm )

They have seats WITHOUT the harness hole, seats WITH a factory seatbelt guide...

They have adjustable lumbar, heaters, massagers, the list seems ENDLESS

Again, I am a cheaper guy with MRC seats but figured some people may not be aware of the amazing options Arizen offers and since they are a sponsor I give them mad props and figured a post should be made to bring attention to the new site...

I have to, in good conscious, still say be weary of buying their brackets... I did and they didn't fit (not because my seats are MRC either, other people have had the exact same problem and my friend has Arizen seats and they are identical). They said to modify them and the neccessary modifications make them unsafe. I got a local guy to make a set that is great though... Enough on that, PM me if you have questions on that...

Also, know that the graphics they offer, like this:



Are not embroidery, it is basically an iron on/transfer cloth piece... Not saying that is bad, just had a friend who ordered it thinking it was embroidery and was sorely mistaken...

Anyways, I think the new site is GREAT and am AMAZED at all the options available... These seats fit and look like they SHOULD HAVE COME IN OUR CARS FROM THE FACTORY and there is no other style seat out there that I feel looks that way...

Now, you can customize the crap out of them and have a truly high quality interior that rivals our big brother the Vette

I LOVE my Arizen's. Get complements on them all the time and they look and feel GREAT, although I did have to make my own brackets... One thing different from MadRacing, Arizen seats are perforated

Screw it, here's mine (I love posting pics of my seats !) :





Steve, I don't think all Arizen's are perforated. I think it was just the way yours were optioned...

As well you should. Your posts are the reason I am looking to buy new seats. Making me spend more money. Jerk.

I like the stock look of our seats more.

But, those look great with that roll cage.

I love when a street car has a roll cage, it looks sick.

As petty as it is, I HATE the harness slots on these seats, and even similar seats (like most Recaros, et). I can't believe how much better they look without them! Though, they do serve a function so I can't complain too much.

Normally I'd lock a non-sponsor thread like this down, but Arizen will be a sponsor soon. I have them building a set for my '69 Camaro convertible.

Wow, they really offer some great stuff. You can get hounds-tooth seats with matching rears! That's the one reason I never opted to get these seats. I wanted to have a matching rear set, but since they can match them, seems like its a pretty solid deal.

Sorry about that, I honestly thought they were a sponsor... I saw a post in "Seat Stays Up" where they were showing their new product (Carbon fiber inserts I think) and under the name it said "sponsor"

For $40 extra you can get them without the "harness slots"
