Whats the cheapest you guys have found them ? There's a vendor on here with free shipping but seems he marked his price up to make up the difference . I'm ready to get a set but would like the best price available like everyone else.
I paid $399 each ...From where is mentioned further up. I must say a+ communication and follow up.

I paid under 800 for the seats...767 to be exact with free shipping. i was able to get the brackets from a member for 150.
We are making new leather seat covers for these and swapping them over for you guys if you want a more custom look.
New leather on left and stock EVO X on
Just call me for info as we can design them many ways!

Awesome, Dont take this the wrong way but the install looks less the perfect IMO. Is there a way to make the leather fit tighter (less wrinkly) like the original ?

Thanks Its been a labor of love and it wouldn't be where its at today with out all the helpful, insightful intel garnered from this forum. Most of my upgrades were sourced via forum Vendors too.

I like the idea, but would never buy with all those wrinkles.
Excuse the crappy cellphone picts...My garage is dark and the lighting in there is not so good. Will take better ones in the daylight. My pict is, well, to show Im not exactly mr skinny and I fit those seats easy as...and also to put a face to the name outlawtorn LOL.
Opps...You need to twist yr head sideways to view LOL...I see theres a lil plastic bit laying on the floor in front of my extinguisher..MMMM..better picts to follow
Looks great! Was it a super tight fit getting the seats in? I'm asking because I want to install the reclinable Evolution seats in my C5, but I haven't seen anyone else put in the reclinables. These seats look so nice, just need the reclinibility for the wife 😅
They look great. Are they fixed backs, no recline? What about the double logos? I might have to do these. The Recaros I'd like are not supposed to fit. The car or my wallet.
The Evolution seats are reclinable and look exactly the same as the Evolution X. I can't find an installation video or write up for the C5, however, they seem to be the exact same size as the non reclinable Evo Xs. Guess I won't know for sure until I buy them. 🤷
Its not the seat itself friend. Its the reclining mechanism and handle that adds to its width....unless you cut the plastic and usually swap to C6 belts then you just install them in reverse. There are plenty of thread on here about seats.
Sorry to bump this old thread but I have a question. How does the C5 handle airbags on this? I bought my Evo X for the drivers side along with the custom seat bracket and the airbag pigtail stays unplugged for the install. There is no light up on the console when you start the car so is the airbag still on and active with these seats installed? I believe I read you have to buy some adapters to get the light to stay off on the C6 when doing this mod.....
I loved them...Used the optional seat rails that come with them if I recall. Only thing I noticed is that my back tended to get a little sweaty on a hot summers day sitting in them compared to the factory sport seats. As far as durability they looked brand new and they were very comfortable seating position wise. Have since sold the car :-(
