Corbeau GTS II or '03 Cobra seats (poll)

[mario23_15]

So I'm undecided on which route I want to go with seats. They would be going into an '01 zinc yellow mustang with dark charcoal cloth interior.
These are my two choices:
Corbeau GTS II (these exact seats. black leather with black suede inserts)
pictures belong to "mell0" over on moddedmustangs. Not sure if he's a member here.

Cobra seats w/ dark charcoal inserts (I know they are expensive and hard to find)

The up side of going with the cobras would be having the matching rear seats and not the stock cloth rear.

Which seats would you go for? And if you've sat in either (or both) give your opinion please. Btw the car is a DD not involved in any road courses, autox, Drag, etc. This is all for DD comfort, looks, and to get rid of the crappy stock cloth seats.

Thanks, Mario

those Corbeaus look really nice. How much are they? I say go for them. They look comfy, too

Prices aren't bad on the Corbeau's and they look very comfy. Looks like a pretty good match between them and the factory leather rears, so I would look for some of those too.

Either that or just suck it up and live with the stockers- which honestly are very comfortable compared to a lot of the cars that I have owned IMHO :shrug:

Maybe it's just my opinion too, but anything with a Cobra emblem on a GT just always looked wrong to me...............

Those Corbeaus are VERY comfortable. My buddy has them in his 99.

They come to around $1300-$1400 with the seat brackets. And they do look pretty darn comfy.

Very true about the cobra emblem, that's something that is pushing me away from them.

Thanks man. :beer:

Only thing i dont care for with the corbeau's are the headrest look too big.

The Corbeau GTS II is a very nice seat, but the tracks didn't go far enough back for me and the extenders I bought brought the seat up too high. I'd go with factory or Recaro maybe if I were you.

 

[theunseenclass]

I have the Corbeau A4's in black microsuede. Have you looked into those, there reasonably priced and really nice IMO

 

[slow2v]

CR1s or dont bother!

I've already done the research on this and I'm going with the GTS II's as well. It's stupid to spend 1000+ dollars on a set of cobra seats when you can buy much nicer brand new seats from corbeau. There shouldn't even be a debate, ask the guys with the cobra's plenty of them will tell you they went to a corbeau and they've never looked back. So I say corbeau's hands down.

Corbeau also sells the extra material to redo the back seats, I've already talked to a local upholstery shop about my backs having the dark suede inserts put in and done with light grey stitching to match.

I love the way my cobra seats hug me but I agree with above if your going to spend 1000 on seats might as well get some corbeau seats.

how the hell does this keep getting bumped?

I went through the same thing and went with lg1's. I will never look back. The seat is comfy as hell. Drove the car 6 hours in a day last month and they were great.
