As I am customizing my project car I am going to put better seats in it. I have seen S2000 seats in a teener and they looked good but the owner said it was a tight fit. I see all types of aftermarket seats on ebay in the $300-$500 range after shipping but will they sit too high?
914 seats are very low to the floor and being 5'11" I don't want to look at the windshield frame when I drive. Who else has put something else in a 914 and how do they work? |

Also, how well do they fit the backpad? Do you perhaps have a photo? The Corbeau Classic IIs seem to me to have slightly better lateral support in the upper back than say the Le Mans GT seats. I sat in a demo Le Mans GT seat at the Porsche Auto Fest in Ventura last year and frankly found it to be a bit lacking in lateral support other than in the butt. They are also about double the price of the Corbeau. Andys |
