I have in my M, Sparco Sprint fit fine, Cobra FIA historic do as well but are a bit more costy than the Sparco's.

Both are FIA approved, if you don't need an approval are there plenty of options, just ensure that the seat is less than 50cm wide at all points.

I have a pair of OMP seats that are FIA compliant. Never used (one still in its wrapping) only put in my TVR S1 to check for dimensions - 47cm wide so will fit. They are black with leatherette finish as I was using in an open top car and wanted waterproof to wipe down. Message me your email and I'll send photos and cost if you are interested.

Anyone tried fitting Cobra Historic FIA seats?



They should be narrow enough to fit the Vixen S1 I believe?

I have them in my M race car. A good seat for a tall person as they can be pushed along way back in the well. Anything else I've tried is too wide to move back. I'm 6'2"

What size pants / trousers do you use wink

I'm worried that my ample bottom might get stuck if I squeeze into this seat smile

Although I love my Vixen, using it as a dieting tool is not an option smile

I'm 98 Kilos Neils so no lightweight. smile

That said, it's not super comfortable - not a place I'd want to be for more than a 1 hour race. laugh
