RS style seat source?
 
Where is everyone getting their RS style seats? I will most likely be reupholstering them so not looking for the best set out of the box.
Thanks

GTS Classics and Vintage seats are the two I see most often.

RS Seat (Touring Seat)

Nurburgring Seats - Nurburgring Car Seats

I had the Cobra RS seats in my SC and they were nice, and almost half of the price of GTS. I'm not suggesting GTS is over charging, I'm sure there is a reason for the difference but depending on what you're using the car for the Cobras might be a more reasonable alternative.

I really like these. Can anyone with these seats speak to the comfort/driver fit on these? I'm in the market for these myself, but the in-ability to put butt-in-seat has given me pause...

I really like the Rally ST's but with the pound/dollar conversion plus shipping this is more than I want to spend on a seat I am going to tear apart to reupholster. Any guidance on other sources of this style?

Priced in Euros (1.1819 today) don't forget to take away the 19% VAT (which is included in the site pricing then add shipping to USA of 190 Euros)

I am an idiot - thought it was pounds. Sending them a note thanks

you shouldn't have to tear them apart, I believe they will upholster to your spec if you ask

charwood77 09-29-2017 02:17 PM

yep, they have a special requests section.
