C6 sport seats installed

Besides the headlights the one thing I missed about my C6 was the seats so I took care of that this weekend. I swapped out my C5 FRC-Z06 seats for a pair of C6 sport seats this weekend. It was pretty easy considering I have a FRC so no memory seats or anything crazy. Considering how they bolt up without modification is more proof that a C6 is really just a C5.5

They look way better and have way more support

My Z06 seats are for sale here

Look great.

If the wife really can't stand the Corbeau A4's I'm about to put in that's what I'll do.

WTF?

Blasphemy!

I'm glad it all worked out for you.

Were the seats power in the C6?

If so how do you get them to go back on the track non powered in your C5?

Seats are powered with the C6 seat. On the passenger side I just tapped into my power from the amp that was there. Just needed a power and a ground and I was good to go.

They look nice and firm, very modern. I have no idea what the design team was thinking when they made these C5 seats, they are awful.

Where did you get the seats from?
