tha cobras are sweet but the other ones are a little cheaper and they can bolt on easily without having to trust the local shop on doing a good job. SO will you help me if need be. I think I would only need to know what wires to solder together and where to get some of that shink tubing thingie.

I might need some pointers not covered on the site. I saw it when you posted it. Thanks for the link but if you can help it is better since i can;t ask a site questions.

Recliners are for slow cars. Honestly, How often to you adjust the back of the seat?

Not often, but that's because I have them set where I want them already. If my 7 was my daily driver, I would definitely try out the non-reclining seats before buying.

Since you asked about the DAD seats. I have sat in both dad ans sparco seats. Sparco is softer than the dad seats. The fit is the same and the dad seats are pretty strong. There was a guy at a the NOPI Nationals trying to sell a **** load of them. After about 10 minutes of throwing one of the on the ground off of a table he managed to break it in half. I would go for a sparco. Much more comfy.
peace,

$162 for sprint seats is pretty good. (automotive warehouse) The site can be viewed in US dollars too btw. I just wonder what they charge for shipping?
