Does any one know if you can put competition seat in a 2013 Grand Sport 2 LT?

are you talking about a C7 seat in a C6...https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...c6-3.html...it can be done...with that said...you would have to either eliminate the side airbag or trim the side airbag cover down because it will hit the B pillar

If you are referring to the C7 seats, the only thing is, when they were first introduced GM stated that they were not recommended for a normal everyday driver. Not sure if that is still the same or not.

The competition seat will fit with some altering depending on what type of seats in your corvette you have; but I would suggest that you go to a dealer and fit yourself (and your significant other) in one of the competition seats as I did....I found out for myself that even though I am not a heavy guy...I would probably have to wrestle getting out of the competition seat because of the side bolsters if they were going to be installed in my C6 rather than rolling out of the GT seat that I did install...remember INSTALLING C7 SEATS IN A C6 IS NOT FOR THE WEAK ...IT CAN BE DONE
