    Sparco Monza's, perfect support. Do you think that the STi seats are too wide also?

    my cousin went with a nice pair of recaro seats.
    i'll see if i can remember which ones.

    zenwrx(?) bought the jspec sti seats and did a swap, selling his seats to a wrx guy and spending about $300-$400 (?) grand total.
    i sat in them and they are VERY NICE...
    more support and alot narrower bolstering.
    no way to pass a harness though.
    and the height adjustment is on the passangers side. (rhd)

    rallyspec has them for $1200??

    the seats are too wide for me and also they arent very comfortable for long trips. How hard is it to install new seats?

    I will dig around, but I have that number to a race shop right over by my house that will give us atleast 5% off everything. He is a full sparco, recaro, and possibably bride dealer. He has EVERYTHING fron seats, to race suits to gloves to window nets. I will look for the name and number to the place.
