Has anyone installed the Corbeau A4 seats in their 914? (Oh no, not another seat thread!!!!!).
I went through a bunch of old posts and somewhere someone mentions them, but it wasn't clear if they actually installed them. The reason I ask, is that they seem to have some favorably narrow dimensions; 18 1/2" wide at the bottom where the Classisc II is 19" Forza is 20" wide. I realize it is reclining and tips forward but othewise seems well suited to the narrow 914 requirements. Short of sitting in them all, it's difficult to tell by the photo's on their site if it has the "butt-bucket" style of seating like say the Forza. http://www.corbeau.com/products/a4/a4.shtml# Andys |

Andy:
Come on over and you can sit in mine...Just installed couple weeks ago... I like em'...No, I love em'...They fit and feel wonderful...BUT...They are thicker on the bottom and therefore make you sit up higher... I'm 6' and I have to rake the seat back to get enough clearance to fit with the top on... I kept the original seat sliders, but removed the tilt mechanisms and laid the front right on the structural bar under your thighs... Available for viewing Saturday and early Sunday...Going over to Steve Griders on Sunday afternoon to remove an engine... 2-OH! |
