For Christmas my parents bought me the Summit Sport seats from SummitRacing.com. Figured you all would like to know a few things incase you are interested in them for your car.

Weight ~40 Pounds. I had cloth seats stock and I reused my stock sliders(including the power one) so I didnt loose very much as I had hoped to. I probably lost maybe 4 pounds each.

Install Really wasnt that bad. It took me a little longer at first because I wanted to use the sliders that came with the seats to loose more weight, but there was no way I could make work. If I knew that I was gonna use the stock sliders it probably could be done in 1.5 hours. I originally installed the spacers that came with the seat but the seats sat a little too high for me so I removed them. On the drivers side seat, I simply drillled new holes on the top alluminum piece. The bolt hole must be about ~1 shorter(from side to side) so I had to drill near the edge of the alluminum piece...but it fit. On the passenger side the stock slider is 2 seperate pieces so you dont need to drill off to the side, jsut measure and drill the hole in the center of the slider. There is a cable that goes from one slider to the other which needs to be shortened because the sliders will be bolted closer together. Once that is done, another hole must be drilled in the part of the slider which bolts to the car since the sliders are closer together now. Install requires no welding, just a 10mm socket,15mm socket, 16mm socket, a few drill bits(not sure of the size), a power drill and some time.

What I like about the seats.
1. They look SO MUCH BETTER then my stained cloth seats I had.
2. Not to expensive.
3. Get the leather feel without the leather weight
4. Seats hug you well(so your not sliding everywhere), yet are still comfortable
5. Tilt foward unlike some aftermarket seats.

What I dont like about the seats
1. Didnt loose as much weight as I liked(but I still lost weight so I guess this is an invalid reason
2. When you tilt the seat foward, they hit the roof by the sunvisor. They still allow plenty of room for people in the back to get in.
3. I compared them to stock leather seats from my friends 04 GT, and they are not as comfortable. They are much more firm but I guess once I wear them in a little they will soften up. In the upper back region(right below the seatbelt holes) there is a little too much pressure which might cause slight discomfort after extended driving. Overall still comfortable.

Price I think they were $209, and $5 extra for shipping, but dont quote me. The jegs seats are identical but might be $10 cheaper...still unsure about that. Jegs offers the seats with different color inserts as well.

Overall For the price you cant beat them, I give them the big thumbsup! 9/10

 

I was looking into buying some of those, but I have some broad ass shoulders, and I think they would be too uncomfortable for me, in that area. They look great though, and for the price, they dont seem like they can be beat. But I will stick with what I already have, good info though.

 

I bought a set of those and installed them a while back. I ordered the seat brackets for those seats but they were a joke. I ended up making my own brackets and fitting the seats to my liking. I will say, you get what you pay for, as these seats look nice, you can tell they are cheap. You have to dial the seat back back or forward unless you are simply letting someone sit in the back then you pull a lever that releases.



Over all, just as on_ice said, I would give them a thumbs up when considering the price.

 

they look great!!

 

They look good, I will be get a set of tan ones for my lincoln in the next couple of weeks.

 

yeah they both do look good and so do the seats

 

Do Those Seats Come With The Two Girls???

 

I like the nice blond seat cover. Does she come with it? j/k

 

My bud had those same Summit seats in his Camaro..nice seats for the money.
