Wow, it's like a 914 love seat in your garage (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

old pics, they are in the car now... and I have the camp handles on them now... and the passenger seat is 3/4 of an inch higher than stock to clear the motronic brain... I copied my brothers set up because he is THE man.

The shoulder thing makes all kinds of sense, but it makes the seat HUGE!
I'm older than I was when I was 16-18 and I prefer some COMFORT. I like padding. I highly recommend padding the seat bottom and the seat back. For reasons that I do not understand, someone in their infinite wisdom decided to contour the stiffener ribs in the seat back TOWARD your spine instead of away from it. Too thin of padding there hurts my spine right in the middle of my back. Without ample padding in the seat bottom gives me a real Pain in the Ass (literally). I have tried it both ways, and actually added padding to the seat back in the track car. (you know where if you look at the pictures posted above). Here is a shot of my street car seats. Not all leather, but I don't stick to them in the hot summer sun either. Attached thumbnail(s)

I can still use the stock seat cushion and tuck away the sub-belt.
I do like the thin seat pads I had made however. KT |

QUOTE(John @ Feb 8 2007, 08:05 PM)  I highly recommend padding the seat bottom and the seat back. I would love to but then I would have to wear goggles and run with the top off. Extra padding on the back is a good idea. |
