Baz 421 Posted August 27, 2007 Depends what you want them for? They're very similar design to my Corbeau Revolution, but i personally wouldn't touch those particular ones, never heard of them, no approval etc etc, when it comes to seats/belts etc, i'd rather be sure i'm getting something of a decent quality for safety.

swordfish210 20 Posted August 27, 2007 that basically means that the company producing them is up to british standard (i think), dont you think that the massive ears on the seat are a bit extreme for road/trackday use, i'v driven a car with seats like that before and i couldnt see piss all out of the sides cause they were blocking my view Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clifton 0 Posted August 27, 2007 oh that atleast they would be safe then lol do you think the seats are abit much....it will mostly be used as a track car and not much road use... and ive never driven a car with those big side bits so i dont know what it would be like....but they must be better than my old monaco's, they are the most uncomfiest seats ever! ben Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swordfish210 20 Posted August 28, 2007 if you're using it for more track than road then they should be ok as the ears do help to keep your helmet stable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baz 421 Posted August 28, 2007 Yes it's not so bad for a competition only car, for use in a road car can be a pain, especially if you sit a little closer to the wheel, looking left and right, and also then in the mirrors can be a chore! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rik 0 Posted August 29, 2007 ISO (International Standards Organisation) CERTIFIED 9001:2000 is for Quality management System! It basically means the company is following the international standards to produce quality products, i.e. using correct documentation and auditing procedures to ensure the items are in the correct tolerance etc... It does not mean they are safe though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daza4 24 Posted August 29, 2007 They look very similar to the seats I have in my car that I bought off ebay. They are very well made, and seem to be lasting longer than I thought they might !!! they are ideal for a track car. As for visabilty I use the gaps on the sides of the seat to look through, they can be a pain sometimes for side view but havent struggled yet. As for getting in and out I found the best thing was a removeable steering wheel, loads fo clearance now!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
