Hi,

i had a pretty frustrating experience yesterday: I had a pair of summit plastic racing seats upholstered a couple of years ago to match the lining of my rear bench. When i finally installed the seats yesterday, i found that the seat position ist much to high compared to the stock bucket seats.

are there any seats that you can recccomend that give me a comparably low seating position?

The ting ist, i need them the to bea adjustable, otherwise i would just throw away the brackets ...

Racing seats? Can't help, but in my Satellite daily driver I'm using seats & tracks from an Escort. The seats are comfortable enough and are real low in the car which I like. If I wanted them higher I can always block the tracks up higher.

I am about to switch them out for power "Enthusiast seats" from a 84-93 Daytona. Power seats with power lumbar and power side wings. Heavy but good for a comfortable daily driver with sporty look & feel.

Seeing you are in Germany how about a BMW E36 Sport seat ? Not what they call the vader , but the seat that comes in the non M3 sport model or M3 with LUX package ?

I had BMW M3 Seats in my 70 Dart. Drivers side Electric, Passenger side Manual. I picked up the set for 200 bucks from Ebay and that was 9 years ago. In my 69 Charger I have Porsche 944 Turbo seats. Driver again is electric, Passenger is manual...matched the factory backseat to coincide with the front Porsche seats.

Black seats below are BMW...Blue suede is the Porsche

procar elite lumbar by scat. very comfortable and very nice quality. and cheap compared to buying and redoing a stock set.











It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
