Corbeau A4 is a popular aftermarket seat for us C4 owners. They're relatively cheap and fit in the bottom width area. They make a special shortened base cushion model, ask for it.

Contacted Cipher - none will fit. ProCar by Scat Evolution will fit along with the Corbeau A4.

Funny thing..I contacted Cipher also. They told me the same thing and recommended Corbeau A4. The measurements for the A4 are the same as Ciphers 2002 model seat. go figure. looks like Cipher doesn't want c4 business?!
