(I had a quote from BMW for 645 convertible seats $25,000 a pair!). -------------------------------- Darren Beale Keith Black Racing Engines®

I haven't installed yet but will post on here when done. -------------------------------- Darren Beale Keith Black Racing Engines®

Don't know how easy they fit on to a stock frame/mount as mine were gone but I do know the frame Corbeau has in about 3" too tall. I had to cut it down so my head would not hit the roof!. 6323276-IMG_0930.jpg (31 downloads) Driving modern convenience in classic beauty

Super comfy too! They can be bought for reasonably cheap off of eBay. Paul '69 Super Bee 383 EFI Turbo

Old, tired, and sometimes broke down. Me, not my car...

Hah, never even thought of that! Eh - thinkin's overrated. I suggested in another thread seats out of a '97 Sebring JXI vert. Very nice seats with built-in shoukder harness so nothing to climb over to get in back. Old, tired, and sometimes broke down. Me, not my car...
