Default aftermarket seats what are your thoughts

I have been thinking about replacing my worn original seats in my 95 GT with the aftermarket “race” seats often seen.

My question is how do they mount? Do you bolt them tothe original power seat tracks?
What do you guys think, some times I look at them and theyseem rice!

Well if you ask me .. racing seats are must .. and ricey ???? haha quite far off brother .. they hold your *** in the seats and make the ride so comfortable .. I love feeling more apart of the car instead of sitting on a bubble like you feel in stock mustang seats .. I have Momo racing seats .. they recline slide and are still electric .. I love them .. new they are 600 a peice but they had the widest back on them and I'm a bigger guy so I love them ... they come with sliders which are easy to mount .. i had to make some adjustments to keep the power seat .. but its not that hard .. just a small cut on the side of the seat to move the controls .. other than that .. i promise you'll never want stock seats again .. I have tons of friends with mustangs and they are always talking about how awesome the seats are to drive in ..

Yes they do look good, do they mount to your original seat tracks just want to make sure they mount like an original seat. In the past I had seen seats like these installed and when you looked close they were half *** mounted with stacks of washers etc.

A picture or two would be great! No I dont buy cheap crap (you get what you pay for) so did your seats come with mustang specific seat tracks?

I would like to have some racing seats, but I have never found anything that would look good with the white leather interior. I think those look good though, not ricey.
