Default SVE seats

Hey guys, I was wondering if anybody has tried the SVE seats that late model sells? I'm thinking of swapping my stock seats to either the SVE seats, seats from a Dodge Neon SRT4, or Corbeau A4's. I would ultimately want the Corbeaus, but I have plenty of other things to spend money on if they are not worth the $880 price tag.

Also, has anybody successfully put in the Dodge Neon seats in a fox?

So I finally spoke to somebody who has tried them out. They said they are decent for the price, but not really worth getting. They said I'm better off trying to get the Dodge Neon seats or even the cheapest Corbeaus. I've been searching on craigslist for some SN95 Cobra, Dodge Neon SRT, or gently used Corbeaus, but no luck.

If anybody knows anybody who has put in Neon seats in a fox, I'd be interested to hear what they have to say. Ideally, I would like the Cobra or Corbeaus, but I have other areas to put the money in first.

I'm sure you can make them work, may have to adapt the seat bottom to the track with a little fab skills

I've done more with less, so I'm not afraid to fabricate something. I'm just wondering why I seem to be the only one to try it...

Got yah. It sucks because the stock seats are comfortable, but if you take a turn you're going to smack your head against the glass. lol

Hey bud, if you have any questions on the seats, let me know. I actually have one as a computer chair at my desk
