I'll be sure to avert my eyes. - LOL

Did you have to fabricate seat rails? Or did you find some that you can bolt right in?

ok sorry for not responding but i havnt had any time, been working my ass of and its been -30' out side and cant do shit...

yes i have to make some bracets because everyone knows how that universal fits most cars brackets actually only fit honda's

so tomorrow is the day, my day off, im running down to the high school metal shop and going to work on them, i hope it doesnt take me forever cause im tired of looking at my seats outside of my car

DomWoo · Post by **DomWoo** » Thu Jan 08, 2004 6:44 am

they are in!!!! finally in!!! havnt got to see them in the day light yet but they look sweet as hell in the dark!!

i made the brackets fit the same hight as the stock seats cause i dont like the seats that make you feel like your ass is on the ground and you can bearly see over the steering wheel

it took me 2 days to make and paint the brackets, had to change my disign many times because of that damn computer under the passenger seat but i worked around it and they fit perfectly and still recline and side back and forth like the stock seats. im so happy, best $400 spent on the interior i would say. next for the interior is to make all the plastic vynal covered

that will be fun

sorry for no pictures as of yet.. my camera has no batteries cause i have a cordless optical mouse and these batteries kick ass as for how long they last, im going to charge them up and take some pictures tomorrow morning before work and throw them up on the board,

you know that feeling that you get when your on a boat out on the ocean for a few hours and when you get to land you still feel like your on the boat going back and forth with the boat, well i have only sat in my seats for 30 minutes or so and i still feel like im sitting in them, hehe they are nice to sit in

Oh the A# racing seats you can find them in any pep boys. QUestion why yellow and no red? Are they Confortable?

DomWoo · Post by **DomWoo** » Sat Jan 10, 2004 4:36 pm

they are 3Aracing seats and they are very nice, never seen them at pepboys but then again i havnt been to one in a long while

they were 250+80 shipped, then i had to build the brackets so they came out to be about 350

hell yeah these things are confortable, and the reason i went yellow.. well youll see

Post by **PrecisionBoost** » Sat Jan 10, 2004 9:37 pm

What materials are they made of??

I would imagine that they were $350 each not per pair... seems like a good deal... where did you find them?

DomWoo · Post by **DomWoo** » Sun Jan 11, 2004 2:30 am

they are perferated vynel and they were 250 for both NEW!!, yeah it was a killer deal, i got them on ebay they also come in red blue black and gray

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 2453007609

this isnt the same ebayer i bought them from but it could be the same person because they came from NY

I have looked at those in Pep Boys and thought the grey or black seats would go well with my silver Lanos.

But, since the car is an automatic and I don't plan to really do anything other than an intake and possibly an exhaust, there is no point to putting in sport seats.

That price is really tempting..... I really wish I knew someone that has had these seat for a year or two so that I knew that they won't fall apart six months from now.

I still have some Recaro seats but it would be cheaper to purchase these ones than to have the Recaro seats redone.

Let me know how they stand up...... hey WooHoo, are you a big guy or a little guy???

I was just wondering how tight they are.

DomWoo · Post by **DomWoo** » Sun Jan 25, 2004 2:34 am

i am the biggest they come... so my g/f says.

... well actually, im 5'7" and weigh 125 lbs

the seats seem like they will hold up. i dont know because i have only had them for a few weeks now. the vinyl is pretty thick and when it was really cold out side they still were soft to sit on.

on the other hand, the price is good for what you get i think

Well I guess I won't be checking body fitment with you, I'm a 5'10" 235 lb ex-hockey player so I have huge legs.

I'm getting chunky since I haven't played for nearly two years so my waist is up to a size 38.

One of these days I'm going to get back into shape and get back into my 32" waistline but it's going to take some hard work ( and I'm lazy....which is why I never made it into the NHL )

These days my idea of exersise is golfing 18 holes in a power cart and consuming a minimum of one beer per hole

. (trust me....it's harder than you think)
