I have a 1999 Eclipse Gs i have been searching forums and google for about 2 hours now and i havent found an answer to my question. i am about to finish up the outside of my car and about to move into the interior portion of my project. i want to do something i have never seen before, im putting racing seats in the front, but i have been pondering the idea of if i can put them in the rear as well. And what i mean by this is have 4 racing seats in my car instead of 2 in the front and the rear bucket seat.I was just wondering if this is possible/ been tried before. if this isnt possible im just going to have the rear seat reupholstered.

Any input would be appreciated, Thanks!!

these are the seats im getting. (my cars interior paint scheme is black and white.)
 
Yea i know what your saying. i didnt know how it would look. I have seen it done on tv before but wasnt quite sure on how it would look on a 2g dsm. It was just a question floating around in my head. ill just have the back seats reupholstered black with white stitching.
 
I'd be more interested in seeing where you think the front seat harnesses will go while still allowing access to the rear seats.
 
ive seen pictures of this done in a eg honda coupe before so in sure it would work in yours as well but i wouldnt do it.
 
Waste of money. Want back seats get a Galant, or evo. Want a clean looking back seat area install some RX7 storage bins.
 
one way to find out, when you have the seat just rest it back there as if you were to sit in it, and if you can get it in the right position with blocks then you can fab a mount for it, my guess is no chance but who knows
 
I've seen it done to suburu's and evo's before too.But those are both 4 door cars, so they have the room.

It looks sweet indeed.But Who needs racing seats in the back anyway.
 
Yea I wasn't too sure on if this was even possible/ look good if it was. It was just a thought that popped intO my head and I was curious as to if anybody has tried it before so I could see some pics. Im just going to get them reupholstered, Thanks for the input everyone!
