Default Aftermarket Seats

I'm looking to get some racing seats for my 1996 Camaro. This car is my daily driver so I won't them to be comfortable and recline, but at the same time I want the two holes in the top part for a racing harness. I would prefer them in black. Any suggestions or anyone selling some here on the site?

I have a pair of enzo style seats that I'm using in my 96. the troubles i'm currently having is finding a way to mount them. it looks like i'm going to have to buy new seat brackets or custom make a set. I'm currently looking for a set of racing belts but non won't work so i'm looking into a set of F-16 spec belts.

My advice is to go out and shop around and see whats avaliable for you. Don't don't want to end up buying a pair that won't work and will have to either try and resell them or do a ton of work to fit. Mine where originally for a kitcar build but I sold it and now i'm stuck with them.

Just don't make the same mistake I did.

Not a big fan of Corbeau's. They fade bad, and most I have seen have holes in them. Seems like tha fabric is not Quality. They look & feel great new, but don't seem to last.

I dunno it's an idea.

You got a roll bar or harness bar to mount the belts?

Cool I was just curious and hoping you weren't going to mount them using the rear seat belt bolts

Nope, I've heard that's incredibly unsafe if you were actually in a wreck.
