Sparco Sprint seats in FC?

I tried posting this in the interior/exterior/audio section (with no luck), and I searched this section as well as that one, to no avail... I figured here it would be seen by more FC guys, thus I would have a better chance at finding the info I need...

With that said, has anyone seen or personally used Sparco Sprint seats in an FC? These seem to be my best option for the price, and the measurements seem to fit me... Anyone got a pic of them in an FC?

Thanks in advance!

I've had one for 3 years now, I'll try to get a pic tomorrow. I love it, its suprisingly comfortable, even on long trips.

Comparably priced are Corbeau Forza and Cobra Milano S, if you're looking at fixed-back steel-frame ~16lb. seats.

Not too keen on those though... A little showy for my tastes...

For what its worth, I just installed a Corbeau Forza II in my FC. Its a very tight fit, but it fits with the Corbeau FC seat brackets.

I modified my stock brackets/sliders with a bar across the top to mount my old seats... Sparco Ultras, similar to the Sprints. there are pics on my homepage of how to do the bracketry for a EG Civic but the process is similar for an FC.

I found it not sitting superlow but as good or lower than stock. the install is super simple for the driver side, a little harder for the pass. side.
