Out of the three i would choose sparco, but your better off with a set of bride or even better recaro seats.

Sparco or Bride, Momo is ok and corbeau is at the bottom of the list, it just doesn't feel as good in terms of fit and quality. i have both the sparco and bride, sparco currently in the car.

ok, I have read a few threads and can't seem to find the sparco corsa's in an fd. I saw one that was for sale a while ago but the thread was full of bashing and had no pics.........Do they fit?

Use the Sparco Torino for you measurements. If the seat you are looking at is bigger than the Torino, it's probably not going to fit.

The corsa is slightly larger than the torino in the shoulder 1.7. So I would split the amount and it would be .85 closer to the window. It is also .6 taller then the torino but couldn't I compensate this with lower brackets? Any idea how close the shoulder is on the torino to the window?

I have the Corbeau (in my FC) I only bought them because at the time I couldn’t afford anything better and to be honest I would have rather saved my money and got something better. They definitely do the job but just aren’t that comfortable by any means.

Well I am sure to get bashed for this but I have looked at the bride seats and I really don't like them. The low max seats look ok, but other then that I am just not into them.

if those seats are .85 wider then they will not fit, even my torino right now touch the door, barely but it does.
