Braum Seats Elite Series

I am installing some brand new Braum Seats Elite Series in British tan into my 1990 Mazda Rx7 Convertible. I will post some images when done.

Nice seats!

I'm interested to see if you gain any headroom.

I want to swap out my black seats which are too narrow for my butt too. Please keep us posted on your progress.

NY Braum English Tan

Planted Seat Brackets
Braum English Leather

Here are a few pics if any of you were thinking about buying these seats.

Brackets did not fit perfectly. They had to be shaved down an inch to fit properly in the convertible.

NY Stock Vert Seats

I am offering these free to anyone that would like some seats. I m 30 min north of NYC. Passenger seat is quite good its in the pictures. The Driver is def not as nice and torn but not as bad. Still useable especially if someone has nothing.

The stock bucket seats are a bit narrow. I'm going to try to find some that are a tad wider and see if I can get lower brackets. I'm 6'2
