I agree with a three part list and some description of mod
Oh yeah, I was drumming up the extreme in my statement for sure . But still, if I were looking over the list (personally) I would only be interested in the seats that fit without modification whatsoever, and would be concerned that some people thought the modification they had to perform was insignificant enough that it didn't need to be mentioned.

Great idea for a thread though, hopefully you guys can get some good information compiled and put together! should be FAQ worthy when it's done!

Do the pole positions work? I like that they come in leather.

this is a great idea! exactly what the forum needs. I think the three categories sounds good. hopefully someone has had experience with the F1Spec seats. the thread in the interior forum wasn't very useful.

Just take the dimensions of any of the seats that are listed which fit, and then compare it to the seats you are curious about. If they are similar, then it will fit. If it's larger, then you'll need to compare it to one of the seats which do not fit. Then if it's similar, it's not going to work (at least not without some effort that is).

Most manufactures post their dimensions like this:

I would really like to see some Recaro Pole positions in an FD. I think they would be the closest thing to an RZ seat, plus they come in alcantara.
