Knowingly buying stolen products is illegal. It also encourages the low-life scum ***** to steal more. I've had enough stereos stolen in my time! I would reconsider your purchase, and your outlook on the issue.

It's clearly a valid point. Perhaps I will reconsider my purchase.
In which case, anyone ever put in a couple of fiberglass buckets? I think this would be pretty sweet and quite lightweight. Downside: no back adjustment.

i went to monacousa.com and got my seats on sale. over 400 off the pair plus free sliders and mounts and shipping only thing bad.... they are 1-1.5" taller in the seat. to me thats nothing im a shortass and learned to duck when entering the car. EVERYBODY hits there head when entering. the quality is great, very thick tweed that should out last the car. not like 99% of the aftermarket seats with that cheap cotton **** covering. ill attach a pic. soon, i have to get my dig. camera back.

Please try to not hold my now corrected mistake against me in the future.

Do the Sparcos fit in a FB? That has been my biggest concern with seats. I currently require at least a drivers side, as the left bolster is now quite unbolstered and devoid of about 99% of the foam. So, I have been looking for replacement seats. Though if I go with anything from Sparco, it would the Torino, since my Seven is my daily driver. Anyone heard of the Cobra seats?

the only cobra seats that i have seen are one piece buckets.. so no adjustability, and thus i have not really looked at them.
corbeu's seem to be nice, from what i can tell so far. a friend of mine just put them in his 95 mustang. they hold you like a ***** *****

I already posted this, but the Corbeau Forza's *barely* fit in my FB. The shoulders of the seat literally touch the door when it's closed. If you check the dimensions of that seat on Corbeau's website, it'll be a fair bet that nothing bigger will fit.

There was an article in Sport Compact Car a few months ago on a bunch of aftermarket seats. I'll try to dig it up and post the month of the article here.

Do any of you know if there's a major difference in height and weight between the 2nd gen cloth and 2nd leather seat?
The difference between the 1st gen leather and cloth seats is huge... the leather ones sit much higher and weigh about twice as much... I've found some 2nd gen leather seats (to replace my 1st gen leathers) but will the differences be similar? I'm looking for a lower seating position and less weight....

With seat scarcity a problem, I am thinking the way to go is get a conversion bracket for Miata seats. There are a lot more options for Miatas and kickass covers from Crazy Red Italian. Now how to figure out how.

I've seen the 2nd gen Integras Seats in the 1st gen.. My friend Ralphy have them in his 83 GS.. The 2nd gen seats.. are not as comfortable as the SE seats. Don;t forget.. the SE seats have the TILT.. as well and the Recline. :]

I put 99 Miata seats in mine and I love them. They are much lower and give lots more headroom. I always felt clostrophobic with the old seats.
IIRC the outside miata rail bolts to the rx7 floor or the rx7 rail bolts directly to the miata seat.
The inside rail is a different story.

Nice, how heavy are they compared to the stock seats? I've seen some good pics of miata seats, look great, except some have Miata stiched on the headrest, but who cares if I'm comfy and glued to the seat.
