What kind of racing seat? Adjustable or not? Comfort seems to be one of the defining factors in expensive or not... I think the nicest "race only" seats i've seen are Kirkey aluminums....but i say race only because they're a PITA just to get into, let alone sit and drive in for more than 1/4 mile.

I ordered mine from pacificaperformance.com and are very happy with them. They seemed to be well priced, for a high-quality product.

i say save the money and go with corbeau.

i said thats too much money for awhile. i bought them, and its been one of my favorite mods. i daily drive them, they suprised me how comfortable they are also.

whatever you do don't put in fiberglass seats.
They look really nice and give the car that mean look.

I'll tell you right now though there alot meaner on my back than they look.

Get padded seats atleast.
I have padded covers but doesn't help much.

Yea I've seen Summit's on an actual mustang and they look pretty good. Theyre pretty good price-wise too.

Another vote for the summit ones, They are prob. the best bang for the buck, Nice seat and under 210$each.

I want a set so bad but not the funds.

Everywhere I've looked, I've been reading that DAD (Dynamic Auto Designs) racing seats are the best bang for the buck. Quite a few reviews have said that they are EXACTLY the same as corbeaus, build quality, comfort, style, etc, minus the corbeau name on the headrest which slaps another $400 or so on the pricetag.

I love my APC they go for $400 for the pair but if you keep your eyes on ebay you could get them for much less, got mine for $300 shipped and want to put them in all my cars.....

How about www.google.com and typing in it is what your looking for. I have Aerospeed racing seats, which are discontinued. They are now made under the name of Corbeau.
