New seats

[StatikPulse]

So while waiting for my ECU to come back from ECMTuning, I decided it was finally time I put my EvoX seats in my Talon. I've had these things for almost two years now. Only have the driver seat in. Can't access the passenger side until the car can run again. More pics soon.

Looks good Do they touch up-top?

What did you pay for those? I'd steal 'em.

It looks good. I still like the look of the Evo IX Recaros better. I can't compare how they feel relative to the X seat though since I've never driven an Evo X.

I love these seats, but can't say I'm 100% happy with them. They are too tall for our cars. There's not much of a gap between the root and the corner of the headrest.

Yeah the look really high

The only way to get them lower would be to weld them straight to the floor.

That wouldn't be too safe

Ouch.

I've been in evo 9 seats and 10. I prefer the X since it has more of a tight support feel.

How's the space to get back to the rear seat?

Are there seat lowering brackets available for them, like the ones for the evo 8/9 seats?

About the same I would say, however these came out of a 4 door so they don't folder like the original seats.

Pretty good

But is there still enough room to squeeze to get to the back?

The seat is back out of the car. I figured out a way I can get it lower. I'll take pics of the space to get into the back seat once it's back in.

Stayed tuned.

After spending the day on it, it looks like it won't be possible without modifying the seat rails a little. I just don't have the time to spend on it so I've put them up for sale locally. If I still have them by winter I may spend the time to get them right. It's back to stock seats for now.

Looking good need more wheel to lap clearence.

 

[StatikPulse]

As soon as I have a bit more free time I'm gonna get these seats in right.

 

[dloiphone]

On your seats do you have some round circular thing between the seat and the bracket? I Hurd if you remove those it will bring them a bit lower.

Not sure what you mean. I stripped the seats down to the sliders, so they can't go much lower than that.

Don't like the fact that they sit so high, but those are SUPER comfortable.

Can't wait to see them installed properly in your ride.

 

[PieEyedPiper]

Is the "rider" height about the same as stock?

 

[StatikPulse]

The way I last had them installed it ended up lightly higher. Should be around the same once I'm done with it. Hoping to have some time over the weekend.
