i had been eyeing craigslist since i got my lx a couple weeks ago, for some racing seats. i had corbeau trs in my last fox, and loved them. this time around, i didn't want to spend $400 or whatever a seat. anyway, i found these for $200 and drove about 2 hours each way for them

corbeau lg1's i believe they are. drivers side has power lumbar also. gonna clean them up a tiny bit and they will look almost new.

yeah ideally i wanted all black seats. with the patch of grey, i can leave a small amount of grey in my interior. so it works out. i was getting ready to pay $400 for some "recardo" cheapo seats.

I'm into drag racing so side to side isn't my concern, lol and if I am hangin sideways, I got other issues lol. I like a seat with a headrest.

Is your interior gray or black? Post some pics when you have them in the car.

Damn good find man. I thought my recaros for $400 was a deal. Anyway, I managed to use the factory seat brackets with a little drilling, and some nuts and bolts. Pictures/info here: http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/784683-installing-recaros-my-fox.html

thanks for the link. yesterday i would have appreciated it more.

i sold my leather seats last night, and got some corbeau complete sliders lined up for $110. better then the $95 per side new + shipping. so the seats will be in tonight.

gotta brace myself for the rough ride now that the comfortable seats are gone
