Default CORBEAU REVOLUTION BUCKET SEATS

as above have any of you fitted them to your cossies?

if so what are they like?im sick of sliding about in the leather seats.ive fitted harnesses but it could be better still.

its an escort bye the way.i know there fixed so i wont be able to get in the back but thats ok prob just fit one.

how much are they roughly?i got told around 3-350 a seat then subframe.

is this about right?

would go for the cobras as they look awesome!

the sub frames are fairly easy for someone to weld up with some flat bar and side mounts

Bought them off my mate with the side mounts for £500

Bolted straight onto standard sierra seat subframe although i did need to get a base model, non height adjustable drivers seat subframe. Was as if they were designed to fit the sierra subframes You do loose a bit of your peripheral vision but not enough to cause any problems

I wouldnt run revolutions in a car that you aren't driving with a helmet on all the time personally. First thing your heads going to do in even a small bump is smash into the side of your seat.

When I said bump I meant crash. It's all personal opinion but personally I wouldnt run them as it doesnt take much of an impact to your temple to kill you.

If you're going to get Cobra, get them direct from Cobra, they'll be cheaper. http://www.cobraseats.com/
