I was looking for more supportive seats than the factory stock ones and even after new foam and covers they didnt give me the support I needed...so after looking around decided on the Forza 2's...I think they match the interior well with the vinyl and chrome belt loops.

 

Looks awesome


Do you sit lower than before ? I read many posts about reduced headroom with aftermarket seats...

How well do they fit and how easy/difficult was the installation ?

 

Looks great,nice job

 

Looks
Where did you hook the belts to

 

That's downright beautiful!

 

very nice!

 

They look very nice and appear to fit well It doesn't appear that these fold forward, how will you get to the battery?

 

Ok...to answer some questions..............

1. I used Corbeau's mounting bracket...but I modified it to lower the back of the seat.I just cut off the back legs and made new mounts that lowered the rear heght so the seat tilted back some more. I am 6 feet tall and I have about an 1" maybe 2". The seat is a tight fit..it just touches the shifter console...and when the door closes the door panel is close to the shoulder kick out of the seat...but fine otherwise.

2. I am making/made my own mounting bar for a 4 point harness. Took the idea of the shark bar and modified it for the 69. Basically theres a bar that mounts side to side between the two bolts that hold the shoulder belts holders in place (thats for the shoulder belts) and I have a bottom mount that picks up the lap belt holder bolt on the trans tunnel, both seat mounting bolts and the bolt that holds the lap belt guide thats on the rocker panel (to the left of the drivers seat)

3. No the seats dont tilt forward but the slide enuff for me to get to my battery disconnect..and if I have to take the battery out I can do that between the seats. I looked at reclining seats and few fit...Corbeau's A4 was one and that is tight and it only comes in cloth..so wouldnt really fit my interior...and even if I had totake the seat out to replace th ebattery it would take 2 minutes as the foot print of the Forza is smaller than the factory.....so the bolts are real easy to get at.

cheers,
Nick

 

Thanks

 

When you do it can you take some pics. I had thought about doing something similar to what you are doing.

 

I checked corbeaus webpage to get the dimensions and prices on these... I could not find the Forza2 in black vinyl, only the Forza (confused)... are yours Forza or Forza2 ? Where did you buy them ?

And again: looks great !!!

 

Ooops my bad..there not Forza 2's..there just Forza's ..................check out soloracer.com.....they do them for $220 with free shipping.

 

great deal for $220 with free s/h - shipping charges would be a lot of $$$$$

 

Why the hell do those things cost over 500$ here... weird.

 

There are two stores close to you that sell Sparco seats for a lot less $$... check Sandtler or D+W in Bochum, you can see their stores from A40... they have their own 'house-brand' also....

 

I like it!

How tall are ya/weight and pants inseam/size? Gotta figure if they fit or not... not the car but ME!

 

I'm 6 feet 210lbs.......and I have pretty short legs so headroom was my biggest concern....but with the way I have the seat now I have 1.5" maybe 2" clearance from the top of my head to the t-top. I may even adjust it back some more.....that might have the shoulder kick out of the seat touch the door panel slightly though.

 

Same seats I have, and I've been very happy with them.

 

Nick those seats look great...your making a road racer out of that 69

 

Dayum I spent 1200 bucks on my corbeaus. different ones though.
