For the last month or 2 I have been searching for 04 seats with the dark inserts. I am willing to drop around 1200( preferably less) on them. The problem is that they usually go for about 1400 or more if u can find them. I have searched on here, corral, ebay, etc. So this is where I need your opinions. Are these seats really worth the money? Should I look for some other seats. If yes, which ones? All I know is I love the way they look and that they replace the front a rears. I cant get a rear delete cause my daughter will have no place to sit. Any input is appreciated. Trust me if I found a pair tomorrow I would buy them. I am getting tired of my crappy seats!

I have the Arizens (actually I introduced them to everyone here:-D) and I love them. They are good seats with a good price.

If you are willing to spend that kind of money why not by a set of Racaro SDR. I have had mine for over 3 years, and still look and feel great. Also the quality of the seat is top notch. Belive it or not there is a diffrence between a $150 seat vs $500 seat and not just looks feel, I'm talking about seat frame constrution and druabilty, and parts avalibity.

www.on-trackperformance.com has great prices and great service, he also posts in the cobra R fourm, I'm just a happy customer.

mac, if your car is 1 0of 27 with cloth interior, then why change the seats? i assume you will be keeping the original seats, right?

I want to eventually find some cloth seats for mine. That way I can still have the 1 of 5 uniqueness if I want.

The cloth is in horrible condition. The previous owners did not take care of the interior. I thought about this and searched for the same cloth interior. No one is selling it. I looked for about 6 months and nothing. I will keep it though. To be honest, I really dont think the car is going to be a collectors item. I could be wrong, but seriously doubt it. I have changed out some parts, i.e., the center console, seats and plan on changing some other things. I will keep all original equipment cause I am a sucker.

CY- I did find a bunch or black interior, so your is out there. (corral) It was selling for pretty cheap too. Good luck!

Josh, if you don't mind me asking....how much were those seats with everything? PM me if you want, I am looking into some new seats soon and am debating a major interior swap to all black or just getting the black seats for a good price..

Go to the web site they will quote you one what you want, fast responses too. They are about 700-800 if you dont get super fancy.

Total I psent a little over $700. This was with shipping and the brackets. Shipping on the seats was very fast, about 3 days and they were at my door. The brackets on the other hand were slow. They are made by a different company and drop shipped, took about 3 weeks to get them.

They have great customer service. They always answered my emails within a couple of hours. If you get them, have the snake embroidered on them. I didn't and I regret it now.

Often times you can find a pair of their seats and brackets on eBay for $500...

That would be where I would start looking.


-edit- Like this auction for example... click me
