Installed Procar Rally seats
I wanted a seat that was more form fitting for me, so I got the Procar Rally 1000 seats fit great and took about 2 hours to install with procar mounting bracket.

How is it getting in and out. Those side bolsters are pretty tall, and the Corvette steering wheel is big. I remember my buddy had those seats in his Camaro and it made it harder to get in and out. But our Corvettes are lower and have bigger steering wheels.

They look good and amazingly it seems like they fit well.

Nice seats! Look 100% better than tall seats.

I have a 14" wheel in my car. I'm not a very big person, only 5'-6" and 170 lb's, so I don't have any problem getting in and out.

I used the ProCar bracket 81172 that mounts to the floor. The only thing I had to do was drill a hole in the top of my existing rear seat strap bracket.
I can go back to my original seats any time I want to. The whole process to switch back is about 20 minutes to do. Just 4 bolts per seat.

SCAT is a few miles from me, and I've been there in person to check out seats. No cost savings, but I can buy right from them and bring them home if I want. Did that for my Chevelle, but had to make my own brackets since they did not make Chevelle adapters back then.

I too have a smaller 14 inch wheel, with an ididit tilt column. In and out is not the drop and slide like with stock seats, but not too difficult (and once in they hug).
I chose the velour centers and headrests to minimize sun scorched seat burn on bare legs.
Nice.

I really like the way these seats look. I've been looking to upgrade my original seats in my '66 convertible and these may be the ticket.
