Check out the seats in the new boos 302.

I would like to have a set of them, Awesome !!!
As others have said without the Boss Stitched on them.
The Ford Racing would be A-OK though.
That would go with mt Boss R Wheels I just added.

Aren't those boss seats heavy?

 

[pcdrj]

The Boss seats are designed for a 4 point harness which can't be used in NASA.

Really? Well there goes my plan...

As for the boss seat being heavy, I couldn't care. I still think it'd be a good compromise between street/track comfort.

 

[vbluep51]

They should be lighter than stock, since they are not power, which I like.

 

[DusterRT]

I talked to the guy who was selling that eBay set, he didn't have a weight figure but said they didn't really feel lighter than any other OE style seat, "maybe a little but not significantly."

 

[Sky Render]

I run mine between the seatback and the headrest. Works perfectly for me, I'm about 5'10 or so.

I'm also 5'10", so that would work for me.

Hmm, harness bar plus back-seat delete plus 4-point harness....

 

[Axes-Of-Evil]

it looks llike duster has a rollbar not a harness bar

 

[Philostang]

Yep, and a roll bar is far better than a harness bar. If you're going with a rear seat delete anyway, there's little point in not doing the roll bar (except cost). Besides they're a great compliment to a proper seat, and taken together they form the foundation of your safety set up.

I know this is a bit off-topic, but I'd recommend the Maximum Motorsports bar. I use it and I was very impressed with how well it was designed and fabricated.

Also off topic, is the MM bar bolt in or welded in?

 

[Gray Ghost GT]

Sparco Evo 2 Plus for me....

 

[Philostang]

The MM bar is mostly a bolt in affair. However, the bar arrives requiring some partial finish welding before it bolts into the car. You're supposed to weld up the rear struts after confirming the exact length for your car (rather than leave them simply bolted to the stubs, which MM says is not structurally safe). It's easier to do this out of the car, pretty minimal all things told.

[DusterRT]

Yes, I've got the MM roll bar. Excellent piece, built very well! That's an old picture from when I first installed it last year, I ran around without the rear seats for a while but it gets a bit noisy and obviously looks unfinished..not a fan of any of the rear seat deletes out there, and the seats themselves don't weight much so I recently put them back in.

I'm running the Racetech 4009W. Very comfy

 

[Axes-Of-Evil]

here's a quick picture of my ultrashield seat, not finished installing it yet but just thought I'd share

Question for y'all with kirkey seats.
Does the seat just come bare metal and u have to pay extra for the seat cover or does the seat come with the seat cover??

I'm pretty sure most come with a seat cover. I got my pair used, and they came with seat coverings. I know that you can get replacement covers, but I'm pretty sure your initial purchase would include one.
