Hey guys im looking to throw in a new pair of leather stocker seats, mine have 150k+ wear on them (still soft though). Do you guys find the 99-04 more comfortable or the 94-95 seats? The 94-95 seem more plush to me but the 99-04 are firmer. Opinions?

No, but I just stripped my interior (and engine bay and under chassis) and installed the $30 Summit racing seats....good GOD they're light, especially compared to the heavy ass power seats that were in my car.

I didn't weigh them, but I'd guess that each Summit seat with aluminum brackets weighs 10lbs at most, compared to at least 30lbs for the stockers.

This is what I plan on getting, or maybe the Jegs version. Stock ones are too damn heavy, altho I will miss the power lumbar.

a guy i just met over the weekend had them in his 95 kb'd car. He said he really liked them and for the price they were great. They looked real nice too but you have to fabricate your own seat brackets.

OMFG the 10th Anniv. seats in the Cobra are SOOOO NICE.

My dad's Cobra is fun a nicer drive because of the seats. They really hug your body, the leather & pads are nice & soft, and they look badass.

Yes 03 cobra seats are VERY nice if your thin. Ive heard of fat people hating them though. Only thing is they are very pricey on the used parts market.

I really like the mach 1 seats myself. THey are nice and comfy with good support and have a cool design on them.

The 10th anniversary cobras are bad azz too. But personally if I am going to buy seats I'll prob go with these.....

I want the 03 Cobra Seats...incredible, I tell ya. Sat in one the other day and the feeling in the seats was incredible.

Side note, yes that cobra was the fastest car I've ever been in...the guy that owns it is well into his 50's, finished paying for his son's university, owns a gas station, and has nothing better to do with his money except drop it into this SVT....last dyno netted him 629 hp....
