However, the super lightweight drilled seats are custom order and take a couple weeks to get. Or, you can get a large conduit/panel punch and knock the holes out very clean yourself. A hole saw works as well, but it's a little rough.

They come 15", 16", 17" and my personal size- 18".
I'll give you the pricing on 18".. they vary by like $5.00.
Seat & Cover with NHRA approved brackets are $220.00 Each
(shipping is extra)
I'm going to the distributer tomorrow- let me know!
My voice line is (845) 735-8771
A KIRKEY RACING seat’s width is based on the width of your hips. Using only a straight edge ruler have the driver sit on a bench with legs hanging over the side. Measure the width of the hips through the center line of the body side to side. Do not measure across the lap of the driver as this will give a larger than required measurement. Take this measurement as the size of the seat you need. If it is 15" then you would order a 15" seat. If it is 15 ¾" go to a 16" seat. Note: some seats are only available in two or three sizes, in this case pick the next size up.
TIG welded. MIG welded on inside for extra strength.
Offset aluminum extrusion around perimeter of seat for added strength and safety.
Headrest uses Kirkey's unique tubular rolled edge for added strength.
Seat front raised for thigh support.
.100 thick 5052 grade aluminum.
Rubber edged seat belt openings and submarine belt opening.
Upholstery is double stitched around belt openings and all stress points.
Layed back for more head room.
NEW! Contoured high density foam bottom provides complete leg and inner thigh support.
Extra thick, high density foam on rib support for added comfort and safety.
