\Could you post a link to the ones you bought? I ordered some from XV a few months ago and they never showed up.

I installed a set of Corbeau GTS II's in my Charger. Found a "like new" set on Craigslist, then had them recovered in white vinyl to match the stock upholstery pattern.
MUCH better than the stock buckets which had zero support. Also used Corbeau's seat tracks, which I had to lower a bit. Seems they have since redesigned them to sit lower. It appeared I had the taller variety, after chopping an inch out of them they fit much better.

Also have a Grant wheel, just added a Mopar horn button. Nice leather grip. (Pic taken before seat swap.)

Great looking interior Bill.
I have the Corbeau seats in my GTX. One thing to consider , that I obviously did not, is if you are going to use retractable belts, the stock mounting point on the rocker panel side will need to be moved back because the lever to recline is right on top of the belt re-tractor. I had to swap the driver/passenger seats so that adjustment lever is now on the center console side. Somewhat inconvenient but I am not into and out of the back seat so much that it is a big hassle.

Hey, thanks!
Really, you had a problem with the retractors? That's interesting.
Do you have a pic of how yours was? I didn't run into a problem with the adjustment lever on mine.
Here's another shot of mine from a different angle. It's close, but once buckled there wasn't an issue.

I will take a pic. I think the difference appears to be I have the 3 point shoulder belt set up and the retractor spool mounts right along side of the adjustment lever on the seat. Just in front of the fire ext in your pic.
Those seats sure are comfortable though!
