I used to have a VW that I had to do that to the seats. Thats good info. its enough to steer me away from those.Well Frank, (Any Relation to Thomas?) Those seats are not any particular bargain. At first glance It's hard to believe that they are selling two of them for the 115.00 price, but they are charging 125.00 to ship them. For a little more,(145.00 ea. shipped) you can get the same seats from Jegs, or Summit and have the piece of mind that they will get to you, and if you don't like them they will take em back.
I've had these. And for the price, they were nice enough. The only complaint is that that reclining knob is also how you have to tilt the seat forward to allow rear seat passengers in or out. (Takes about a bazillion turns to tilt it all the way forward, then all the way back)
Yeah,.......Sweet like a lime. Those plastic seats suck. They are far from an "upgrade" to any interior. If there was ever a seat that reaked of 14 second bracket racer, those are it. OP would be a bazillion times better off getting the seats he originally asked for, as opposed to those .....whadya call em?........seats? The weight you save will be from the blood loss out of your ass after the hemmorroids flare up due to lack of cushoning in those sweeties.
Maybe You could bore a hole in the seatbottom so you could apply the preparation H while you drive?

Well when you think of it, how many times are you letting people in or out of a back seat in a fox? The benefit to the seat far outweighs the inconvenience of a knob tilt mechanism. For the price, they were damn comfortable (all the way to Nashville and back in the TT conquest) and there is the same "planted" confidence that comes w/ a recaro or corbeau for about 1/3rd the price. I cannot testify as to how they hold up, I only had the car for 8 months, but again, as little as most of us drive these cars,........they'd last a fairly long time.
