I'v got some Corbeau A4 seats in my coupe right now, but they faded pretty bad the three years I lived in Hawaii. So I posted them on craigslist for trade and I've got a guy willing to trade some 04 Mach 1 seats for mine. What are your thoughts?

They will sit a tad higher in the Fox, just so you are aware.

The power seat rails are freakin heavy too.

not too worried about the weight because it's my daily driver. And to be honest the harnesses are starting to get on my nerves.

im not crazy about the mach 1 seats but the corbeau A4 are not as comfortable ........guess it comes down to how bad they are faded and like groverdill says the extra weight factor
edit that is another point the harness are a pita if not for racing those seats are really useless for dd

I'd say they A4s are a 7/10. I have no issue with them, but the wife all but refuses to ride in the car due to them.

Can you not go back to 3 point belts with the A4s? I agree, harnesses are retarded on the street. If you're just looking for brutally honest opinions, from a visual standpoint I don't care much for either seat, but if anything I dislike the Mach's more.

Click to expand...

I don't know the exact year, but the SN95s switched to a very light aluminum setup sometime around 96-98.
My son's power setup in a 94 was HEAVY!
I went to the U-pull to get some seats for another car, and got them from a little newer SN95, and the power setup was light as a feather!
So once we utilized the seats as planned, I swapped the aluminum seat rails into the 94. They work great, have more adjustments, and weigh a fraction of the steel rails. I just had to make his 94 seat accept the seat switches being located in front, as opposed to the side as they were in 94. Easy cheezy.

I guess my point is that Mach seats will most likely have the light seat brackets.

I say no to the Mach seats.... my 02 gt seats sit me higher and to far forward... I want to get aftermarket seats instead. If you're taller than 5'11" u won't like em.
