i have the stock leather seats in my 94. in the quest for some weight reduction and some increased feel, im considering getting a set of these seats. does anyone have any experience with them? if you think these are a decent choice, would you get the 10* or 20* layback?

Hi dennis,

how did you mount your seats? do you have a cage right now?

Mike.

My mechanic and I made custom mounts out of box and plate aluminum welded up. It was kind of a PITA with both sides requiring different mounts. I have a 6pt. roll bar now. They are a tight fit with that (I'm 130 lbs). I used a 15" on my side and barely fit a 16" on the passenger side. They are more comfortable than you'd think. I drove it to work and back a month or so ago (100 mile round trip) and the suspension was more annoying.
