OBX Carrera Seats - Brand NEW Sat, 11 December 2004 10:12 Go to next message
Well, I finally installed the seats after having them sitting around for over a year and they sit too high in my car. Therefore, I have to sell them.

They are in perfect condition, never been permanently fitted to a car, they have been sitting around and only recently been trial fitted.

I'm really sorry to see them go as they are an awesome seat and fit me like a glove, but with my height in my car they aren't practical.

Modyourcar sells them for $799 which is less than what I paid for them, and given their immaculate condition I'm chasing around the $750 mark for them. They are black and red, and them come with vinyl patches on the high-wearing spots. They are very supportive and won't be the best if you are a tubby person *cough* Glen *cough*.

Cheers,
Nathan

If you can show me that site, for sure I'll lower my price. I just set it a bit lower than the lowest I'd seen. They are new seats. Smile

how high do they sit exactly? will it mean unable to wear a helmet, or unable to fit head in?

Re: OBX Carrera Seats - Brand NEW Tue, 08 February 2005 05:22 Go to previous messageGo to next message
About 2 inches higher than factory. For me, at 6 foot exactly, it means my hair almost touches the ceiling in the RA60, even if my head doesn't.

In the XX, with the sunroof, it would've been a no go.

Basically I mounted two flat straps across the runners, the very bottom part of the factory rails. If I was REALLY creative, i might be able to go about 1cm lower, but no more Crying or Very Sad

If you keep looking you might find some, I've given up and am about to spend $1k on getting the factory ones rebolstered and retrimmed.

If reckon if you fix-mounted them, without rails, they would sit a LOT lower. Something for potential sellers to think about Very Happy

This is true, remove the need to make them slide and they'd be perfect.
