Default procar racing seats

Has anyone used these seats that can be purchased at jegs or summit? Do they fit in the c5? I want a race style seat but dont have the budget for the seats most forum members use. Any help would be great.

Pm me the link to. I think I know what seats you are taking about and yes, they do work and fit. Obviously you will have to make brackets so the you are able to mount them down to your stock tracks in which I did. They work great.

So bigsexy, you are saying the procar seats will fit the c5? The summit part #SCA-80-1606-61 for the black velour accents. Im not sure how to send a link but this is the one I was sent. It is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2x-sp...1%7c240%3a1318 I hope this works.

Yes they do fit. It is tight however, you have to make sure that you pay very special attention to the seat belt harness against the tunnel area. On mine it was pressed almost tight to the tunnel carpet area, but I liked it. I don't have them in any longer but wish I did.

Good luck if you go this way. I took me about 2-3 hours to get each seat to fit properly. I used a piece of heavy construction paper and taped it to the seat as a jig to find the correct location for the cross pieces that I welded to the existing seat tracks.
