Custom/non OEM seats

Seats are only held in place by 4 bolts through the chassis, remove them and the seat belt mount from the side of the seat and then you can put the Cobra in to see how it looks.Be careful though as a lot of seats are too wide for the space available also check that the seats arent higher,I have the Sparcos that were to be installed in the next generation of Sags and Tuscans (no longer available) and they sit you noticably higher in the car, not a problem for me as I am not that tall but could be to some people.

These are T450t's below, very comfy around Brands Hatch
Tailslide's got some as well, sure he will be along to post some pics up.

If you want to sell them Sparco's......

Hi,
I have Cobra Imola S seats (carbon shell) in my Tam-not cheap but a good upgrade and very light.
Fixed position and have to watch out for the rear panel tensioning struts with rood down when deciding on the installion position.
I am 5ft10in and 11 stone and they are a nice fit.
Very comfortable on long journies too.

Sorry to hear your Suzuka's won't fit, but not surprised.
When Cobra installed my Imola's, over a few days, they did have to cut back and re-trim the front corner a fair bit (transmission tunnel side) and make up special mounts to keep the seat low. They have kept the info and have supplied a number of others to T-chassis cars, but still a very tight fit to get installed.
Worth it as really hold you in well at shoulders and still comfy for long trips - after an extra foam pad underneath if you have a skinny bum like me.

Yep, it was thanks to tail slide acting as guinea pig for Cobra that we can now fit these seats. Huge difference in support compared to Tuscan/T350/Sagaris/Tamora type seats. Expensive but well worth it IMHO plus the added bonus of a substantial weight saving.
