100lbs, lol you stock seats dont even way 100 lbs put together
lol... If you have a leather seat with autmatic controls, take it out for ****s and giggles and see how much it weighs... its heavier than you think. I probably is damn close to 58lbs.

I got grey and black interior.. I got a black recaro driving seat and a grey leather passenger seat. I dont care how it looks. eventually I will probably go to a wrecked stang with black interior and put it in my car.

1000 is way to much. Hell, thats suspension and brakes right there easy.

I saw some of the corbeau seats for a resonable price, but they are all black/red etc. I have the tan interoir.

Oh well.

you need a reclineable seat becuase you need to be able to use the factory seat belt because wearing harnesses on the street is a very very very stupid thing to do and they will kill you

lol, I have a racing shell and I still use the factory seat belt.. I just unbolted it from the floor and fished it though the seat belt hole in the back and side of the seat and bolted it back on. It looks dumb as hell but it works. I dont see how a 4 point harness can hurt you? As long as you bolt it up properly behind the seat... I wouldnt use a 3" belt or 5 or 6 point... I want to get a 4 point 2" belt. With the traditional seat belt clip.. I just havent bought the autopower rollbar that I want, and I am not going to waste the money on a harness bar. But I have been thinking about fabricating a harness bar thought. This harness is perfect for the street.. Easy to unbuckle and buckle in... http://www.sparcousa.com/pharness_tuning.asp?id=371

the reason a harness can kill you is because it doesnt stretch. the reason dale sr. died is because his spinal cord pulled out from his brain because his head whipped forward and he wasnt wearing a hans. if you insist on wearing a harness please please please be carefull. i dont know very many of you personally but i would hate for someone to die because of this. please be carefull
