I wear a 31 jeans waist and a 38 jacket. That seat fits great in the hips, but a little wide in the back. Sitting over 2" lower is kinda wierd. I have the column dropped all the way, and my elbow is up at an angle when I put it on the window sill. I have 3" between my head and the headliner, now, though. Maybe now Osama Tim Andre the Giant can fit in there.

Oh yeah, the other thing about this seat? All of the Roadster seats are discontinued! It'll be nearly impossible for me to find another early version 951vn (black jacquard, silver back) to match it. I'll still be scouring the webz for another one. I'm pretty sure you can still get new covers for them.

Tim, I was trying to make the point that my interior would look nice with those seats with my cage rather then my stock seats. And the Sprint seats are sweet.

sparco seems to do this a lot, they change designs a ton, and will end up replacing it with something that has the same dimensions, but looks different.
my guess is that theyre changing theyre seats towards the chrono/lambo styled seats, but i may be wrong.
i want to sit in this thing, at least for a base of what seat i should get, i sat in some dudes corbeau the other day and it was way loose, so somewhere in between would be great.

oh, and i have your strut bar, so if you want that back gimme a call today.

Worked on the car yesterday changed out some stuff and made the vacuum leak worse. Need a new upper intake manifold gasket. Other than that car drives fine.

Blew a coupler last night getting onto the highway too. Whoopsie.
