Default New Seats
hey guys, i just ordered these new seats, and i cant wait for them to come in..They look like they will be awesome, im just hoping they fit me, since im 6'5" 280 with a 42" waist, but we will see. Also i got them for a sweet deal. The only thing is im gonna have to have someone help me fab up a bracket to make them work, and i didnt order the harness for them. I think i might wait till i get my seats installed and everything and then order the badass harnesses for them..What do you guys think?

they look like nice comfortable sporty seats. you will have to let me know how they seat. Im looking for seats as well but i DD my car and go on long trips so it makes it harder to find a seat for me. Anyways, great looking seats

Measure the seat bottoms (bolt to bolt)... I may have brackets that will work for you as long as your seats come with sliders.
