    i think the stock seats are too heavy, im thinking of up grading to something lighter yet comfortable for daily use.
    what seats are you guys using?

    I like the look of these corbeau. Its not easy to find seats with the aggressive side bolsters on both the top & bottom portions of the seat without the typical shoulder harness cut outs in a traditional vinyl. $278 each.

    Mine are from a Nissan Pulsar NX. Black vinyl upholstered with the same cloth in the middle as the rear seats. Despite how out of place that sounds, they look like they belong. Very comfortable, good bolsters, sporty without looking like race car seats.

    i got these out of a 93 eclipse. we found 2 sets in the same junkyard. $18 each they feel great and support better. they also have flat tracks so install is easy and they fold and recline.

    I'll put up pics soon as i take em. they are more comfortable than the original buckets. i got mine at my local pick n pull for 20 bucks there's not a thing wrong with them, not one stain or rip. with a little bracket fabrication, you can fit virtually any seat.
