OK I am in need of better seats with better lumbar support for my overweight lovehandles. Plus I am so tired of sliding around on the old school leather. Which seats do you guys have or recommend that are direct bolt ins or will I have to do some mods? I was told that Talon/Eclispe seats from the 1st gen years will be direct fits. Yes I see all the aftermarket seats on Evilbay but I am not willing to pay 150 shipping charges for these seats. I am a budget racer so 20 dollars for seats from the junkyard is my budget route. Any help in this matter would be sincerely appreciated.

 

i got a set of APC racing seats, they came w/ sliders and all that jazz but i just unbolted the mounts from the stck seats drilled out the front holes and installed, cost me $200.00 and took like an hour and a half...easy + there pretty sharp lookin and comfy too

 

rx8 seats are the best in my opinion

theres a thread on how to do it somewhere

 

I have an 81 and installed some nice seats from a 91 RX7 that where in good condition and they have lumbar supports. The passenger side bolted in perfect and the drivers side had 3 bolts that fit, 4th bolt needed adjustments. Paid 20.00 for them. I love em.

 

I really do appreciate the feedback guys. I think I might go and get some FC seats this weekend.

 

i cant find the form on rx8 seats and i 2 would love to do that..when you do it do u sit up higher or lower

 

If you could find a set of TII seats they are pretty good.
If 1st gen Eclipse seats fit they are excellent and very comfortable seats.
I also believe some guys were using the Miata seats also.

 

I'll get you a pic of my TII seats tomorrow

 

Where in the world do you just an go get these? I haven't seen any but the worst 2nd gens in a wrecking yard.

 

The junkyards by my house are full of FCs. They use to be full of FBs but now those are becoming very rare to find. That is why I am glad that I grab FB parts while they was still abundant.

 

I haven't been in a while but it seems that cars after about the year 1990 or so are not in the wrecking yards. It's like these parts are only available through a counter like ordering from the dealer but 2nd hand.
