[QUOTE="19COBRA93, post: 4441755, member: 10462"] [b]Got the '04 cobra seats in....PICS NOW[/b] Okay, I have a red with black interior '93 cobra. I installed the dark charcoal (dark inserts) '04 cobra seats. I don't have any pics yet (they're still on my phone), but I'll get them posted soon. I only have the front seats in as I'm debating whether I'm going to do the rears. There has been a couple members curious as to how the seats fit, and whether a tall guy will have issues or not. I'm 6'3" so fitment or positioning was important to me. The seats do sit you up a bit more, but the biggest difference is the front of the seat. The original fox seats are reasonbly flat from your butt forward to the front of the seat under the steering wheel. The '04 seats are tilted back a lot. Where your butt is, it's about the same, but at the front of the seat it's several inches higher. There isn't even 1 inch between the steering wheel and my legs. If I use both hands to steer, I rub my legs as I turn with my knuckles (on sharp turns). Overall, the support is awesome, and it feels so much sportier with the newer seats. The positioning is a bit different and took some time to get used to. If the car had tilt, it would be perfect. Being 6'3", I still fit comfortably, and my head is nowhere near the roof (sunroof car, which helps). My knees are also a good distance from the dash. If you're a bigger guy and have some beef on your legs, these seats are probably not for you. It looks absolutely awesome. The dark grey and black doesn't contrast like I thought it would. It's hardly noticeable, if at all. One of the reasons I like driving my '03 as much is because of the feel and support of the seats. This makes driving my '93 just as much fun. You should be able to see in these pictures the angle the seat sits at, and the distance (or lack of) there is between the steering wheel and the front of the seat. The more I drive it, the more I'm used to it, but it's definitely not ideal.
