seat options with better support and the taller driver, what have those drivers 6 foot plus found? I want a head rest that actually behind not below my head! Options

[DRPHIL914]

first off- i am 6'1", the primary use of this seat will be for AX and trips to the mountains, aggressive driving. I want better side support and head protection. right now if i got hit from behind like Clay did my head would be shattering the rear window, so this is not a good scenario.

i've been searching forum here looking at what others have used. I have looked at the seats that Stefan at GTS Classics makes, and as i look at those options, it seems the best fit and option might be the one that has a 914 shaped headrest but can be raised and lowered, i think it s the Nurburgring, but recently saw a set a member had made i think were the Watkins Glen, they seem to fit in a 914 nicely but the headrest is fixed in place and does not appear to be taller than stock,

So i am looking for options that wont completely break the bank but give great support and fit better for my height and size. I did buy some Corbeau from a member but found they are made for someone 5'8" or smaller and as thin as i am, even narrower. so those are gone and i am researching this time better before i buy.

Please post pics if you have them!!!

Have you looked at the Recaro pole position seats?

'
I have these in my 6 and at 5'11" I have to move them forward to get into the right seating position so there seems to be plenty of room both in legs and head room. Bracket adapters are PMS and mount to stock rails. Downside is price $$ and depending on your look they are more resto-mod. Very comfortable overall and great support.

@eric9144
are these Recaro Pole position seats? did you get them from Recaro directly or another reseller? it appears that you can get full leather , they are $1400 and the suede option is $900. also looks like there are a couple versions of the Pole position seat, some look like cushioning is thicker than yours. I do like the look. So i also will slide the seat forward a bit, even a 6'2" in a stock seat its a reach to get the clutch all the way in if seat is all theway back. I need to find one somewhere around here i can try out.
