Well the seats in my newly bought 89 are shot. I was considering just dumping them for something aftermarket. I also found that the power controls for them don't work either.

Any suggestions? Not looking to spend a fortune on just seats but want something nice too.

I have a suggestion, and it's reasonably priced.

Send me $10 and I'll tell you what it is.....

Like everything else,there care seats then there are seats. Pep Girls,Summitt to Corbeau and beyond. How much are you willing to spend?
I am about to put in a set f Corbeaus. Will run about $300 each including sliders.

I could manage the 300 each with the brakets etc.

I would not mind the 190 that summit has for there sport seats but like I said I don't want them rocking around like pieces of crap either.

Something that will last so I could use in another car if needed would be good.

I LOVE my seat. I wanted something for safety and support that would be a great Road Race seat. Above all I wanted to be held in like a glove. So here it is:





UltraShield Deluxe Road Racing seat with cover. Normally new they are $535 but I got mine from a guy that bought it and decided he wanted something more comfortable so I got it for $260 with the Sparco Rails already on. It doesn't adjust at all other than where you put the bolts but man does it hold you in GREAT! I would recomend it to anyone that plans on racing and wanted a supportive seat.

You can always get those leatherlike seat covers from Mid America. Much cheaper than leather and wear good.
Stock 89 seats are the most comfortable Ive sat in.
