Default Racing Seats???

I think it would be weird to have racing seats in the front and a og bench in the back.. Do you think it would be possible to get 3 racing seats in back(altering the middle one of course)?

I think you can get a matching cover for the back seat when you buy new ones. Not real sure though. I've never did it myself but am planning to. Somebody else on the forum knows all about this I'm sure.

I think racing seats in the back might look weirder, especially 3 wide. But I could be wrong...

Thanks all for your replies. @juniorcar, what i have imagined looks good but i dont know if it will come out good in reality lol

@turbo monte,that would be cool too but i kinda want a to keep it so that i can have 3 people in the back...and incase me and a honey wanna have some fun in the back.

But i actually like the way the iroc back seats are,i might try to use those with front racing seats and see what they look like..too bad im broke as hell right now

Default power racing seats

Did you mount them to the power seat unit or use a manual set up? I'm trying to figure a way to attatch my racing seats to my power seat frame. The seat to frame holes do not match up. I fear by using a mismatched plate I could get injured in a crash. The holes would be to close and weaken the plate. Any ideas? Sorry to highjack the thread but I believe we can bennefit from my question.

I'm curious as well as to how this goes. My driver side seat has a horrific tear along the side and for that reason I wanna replace both front seats with some black leather racing seats. Have also been curious as to just having the rear reupholstered to match ir the three racing seats idea... And @bblackstone, if you figure out how to mount, by all means please chime in. Thanks
