Re: Bucket Seats...?

I have Tenzo-R, I'll post pictures when I get on a computer that's not behind a proxy and can access my site. I like them, they're great, and they're cheap at $250 per seat, but I'm finding that too much rubbing on the seams causes the seam to unravel and also a lot of sitting is causing the seam in the *** to come apart a bit. I think they'll last me a sufficient amount of time though. Also they squash my ***** when I sit in them, I have to drive with my thighs together so I can't even reach the dead pedal anymore. But overall they are recommended, yes.

EDIT - I'll only put effort into finding the pictures for you if you put effort into sentence structure. I have to do internet conversion in my head when reading your post.

Re: Bucket Seats...?

if I were you I would do some research on the seats becuase I'm actually having mine custom made to fit my shoulders cause most high end seats wrap around too much for bigger guys..

Re: Bucket Seats...?

i really like the feel of recaro seats, but have never owned a set personally. people i know that have them, love them too. a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Re: Bucket Seats...?

Straps = seatbelts? The seats bolt to the sliders which bolt to the mounting brackets which bolt to the floor. And the seatbelt clip bolts to the slider or bracket, can't remember how mine were. The seat itself is just a seat. If you're talking about a harness......oh man, I cringe every time I think about the unsafe harnesses people have in their cars.

Re: Bucket Seats...?
