well its going to look, feel, hold up over time like a seat that cost 199 for a pair. i mean if you want a bunch of cheap things in your car then thats you, but ill be the first to say that cheap parts will act and work like cheap parts.


oh and for the record those are ugly as hell IMO. get straight black if anything.

i have those exact seats in my car right now, and it wasn't hard for my buddies shop (showstopper customs- wood river illinois) to put them in and actually they are decent seats. i only bought them because i got them for dirt cheap brand new and wanted a new look plus they are no more rice than vent halos (no offense because vent halos look great). they aren't meant for racing but they look alot better than the shi*** seats that come with the car so i say buy them and tell me what you think. all of the people that have seen them or rode in the car actually like them too and all of my friends drive spocoms; but soon i will be getting a bodykit or corbeau-myles

they look good but i would get them in all black, because if you get the gray they will get dirty over time and look like shit.. as far as seatbelts go dont get that cheap stuff... I have used RCI belts and they have saved my life 3 times so far.. RCI are licenced by FIA and SFI compliant.. you can get them from summitracing.com... and since you have your seats out go and rent a capet cleaner with the sofa attachment and clean the carpet in you ride i will smell good all summer.. if you do

1st off, there APC. APC is the leader in RICE pretty much. personally i wouldnt put anything with there name on it in my car juct cause how there known in the industry.


i love my race seats, but id definitly recommend picking up a set of brand name quality seats that wont break in a short time.

If you like megan racing so much I'd go with their seats, I like em.... not too much of a fan of APC cause you can get those at advanced auto and i've only seen them in shitty cars before.

Just remember, you get what you pay for.

I'd never buy a set of seats without sitting in them first.
