Seats For An F-Body

Looking for input on what seats to use for my new build. Curious to what you guys are using. Looking at Corbeau FX1 Pro, but want to know what will work best. Looking for something that'll fit the car well and not hit the headliner. Going to have the bar installed soon so I need to make a move on these seats. Part numbers and prices would be a plus. I already have an idea of what these Corbeau's are going to run me with rails. All input would be apprecaiated. Thanks in advance.

Mine has a Kirkey layback. Makes it hard as hell to get in and out. But it's very light weight.

I have the FX1 pros in my car with a wolfe 6pt bar. The seats are pretty comfortable, I can take a 3hr trip no problem. I did not like the corbeau brackets though because they had to me modified to get the seats to fit with the 6pt bar. The driverside fit but it sat really high, once i put my helmet on the top of the helmet hit the t-top.

I had the brackets modified so that the seats would fit and also so the seats sat lower. I would get the seats again but wouldn't spend the money on the corbeau brackets again knowing what i know now and how bad they fit.
