Custom Arizen Seats
I got my custom Arizen seats in yesterday and I was amazed on how well these seats are built. They very comfortable for 38 waist person like myself. I got a chance the other day to sit in some Caravaggio seats and they are small seats. These Arizen seats are half the price of the caravaggio seats and built just as well. Mark at Arizen builts some good seats if you are looking to upgrade your stock seats take a look at Arizen seats. Here are a couple of pictures of them installed. Thanks Mark for a great set of seats.

[QUOTE=Brandon619;1570913896] Thanks Mark for a great set of seats.
Your Welcome! TNTC5 got his seats recently and has some pictures as well. We posted some on the C5-C6 picture page we started a few days ago. The link to the page is below the group picture below.
Please remember, our seats can be mounted on the o/e tracks but you loose about 1" of headroom. We have a manual bracket/slider combination that can add some headroom if needed. It utilizes the factory seat belt buckle and a 4,5 or 6 point harness.
Our manual brackets will not work with a harness bar that has struts that mount to the rear seat mounting holes like the Brey Krause because our bracket mounts there as well. Bars like the Sharkbar from Vetteworks or Hardbar USA are fine.

The foam we use isn't very thick but is a high density. It doesn't compress much under your weight. We feel it will last longer and keep shape over time better. We can experiment with a less dense foam that will compress easier as an option perhaps for use while at a track and extra headroom is needed.

I'm very interested in those seats. They seem like a pretty good value, with the exception of the manual racks @ $300 ea.! I can't afford to lose any headroom, so how do the manual racks compare to stock seat height?

We just came up with that idea a few weeks ago. Any local shop could do it. We added an adhesive backed velcro loop strip to the front edge of the seat and the front edge of the brackets on the side of the motor. The cover itself is a flat piece of leather with velcro hook strips sewn along the edges.

They are full leather unless you ask for suede inserts. The suede inserts add $90 per seat but many people prefer to sit on suede over leather. See point 5 on the page below.

The manual bracket/sliders have 3 components - (1) the bracket that mounts to the floor and which the seat belt buckle and racing harness mounts to, (2) the sliders, and (3) the side mounts that connect the slider to the seat. Pfadt Racing has a lighter aluminum bracket but it is $369 with the sliders and does not have a provision for the stock seat belt buckle. To my knowledge ANY seat mounted on the o/e tracks looses some headroom. That is why we spent considerable time designing a bracket with the functionality of ours that can gain approximately 1" of headroom if needed. You cannot use a harness bar with struts that mount to the rear seat mounting holes with our manual brackets.
Fair enough! Thanks for the info. Can you do the side trim panels, or the seat centers in red, like factory mod red interior? (Not the stitching)

Sure! I would need the year to check the red color used. I believe Torch Red was used on some years but maybe there was another red as well.
