I'm thinking about getting some new front seats, but I hesitate to buy something online that I have sat in before. Anyone have a suggestion for a local custom shop where I might be able to try some? Or suggestions for what kind of seats to get?

autosport gallery is a good place to go. It is near Old Wake Forest Road.

this all depends on why you want (or need) some new seats.

The driver's seat is getting old and uncomfortable. Wouldn't mind getting some cool looking racing seats, but comfort is important. That's why I want to try the seats out first.

sounds like you need a new car instead.

Why would you say that?

anyone had there seats recovered?

shop just quoted me $1000....might as well get some new corbeau's

i need 2 front seats too or to at least have mine recoved for under 400....anybody know if that's possible?

^^cause if your fatass has been driving it enough to wear the seats out then it's probably worn other shit out too

^yeah if you know the right people, but that shit's expensive usually...id just go with the corbeau, they are nice

^ second that

^^ they just steal shit out of a car that looks like yours and put it in, thats why its so cheap

If you were happy with the seats from the factory then hit up a junkyard. That would probably be easiest.

I put buckets in my Dad's truck (ditched the bench) with two seats I got from nine's. I remember him charging me $20 each and they were my pick from the cars in the lot. I drove in, pulled them myself, and on the way out gave him some cash.

I can confidently say that my recaros are the most comfy car seats I've ever had the pleasure of sitting my ass in.

No electronic controls though, all manual baby!

my bonneville seats are the shit, they do everything but massage, heat and swivel
