Corbeau seats
Does anyone have a set of these in their car. I am looking to replace the seats in my SC and I like several of the models made by this company. I do wonder what they will look like in the car thought.

My only complaint is lack of headroom w/ a helmet on. I have to remove the lower cushions for track days.

I just got some LG1 Corbeau seats installed in my Targa. Was planning on posting some picts tonight if the sun ever comes out. I got the micro suede which I think is very nice when it is cold out or the top is off and the sun is hitting the seats.
Getting RS door panels done tomorrow. ![]() Scott

I have a Corbeau Forza in my un-Porsche. The black cloth is a real dust magnet, the cloth pulls away at the seat-belt inserts and the pump-up lumbar support failed within two weeks. Oh yeah, the brackets are silly heavy. Other than that, they are swell.
![]() On the plus side, they are cheap (I paid $220.00) and they fit wide-bodies (driver, not car) well.

I've used Forzas in my last two street/track cars. Good support, black cloth can substitute for Velcro and I wouldn't want to drive really long distances because of the lack of wiggle room. Still a great value though.

I second this. They work fine, cheap, but the cloth tearing away from the harness holes would bug me on a street car.

I had some Corbeau A4's in a Nissan a few years ago. +1 on being a real dust magnet but those were the cheapest reclinables at the time and they were pretty comfortable.

I had the first gen forza and it was super uncomfortable. I actually threw it away last year, but corbeau does make some great seats.

I have the GTS II in my longhood and they are ok. They are way too tall in the backrest which makes checking your blind spot difficult. My car is a diay driver though.

![]() Ive had three sets of these. I like them. I would recommend getting the "wide seat" . I have a 34"waist and anywhere other than the track they were too snug. |

It seems that the cloth is not advised but haven't I also seen them in vinyl or leather?

I cant really tell from the web site but do the seats come with mounting hardware or is it not included in the price?
