#1: Racing Seats Author: jwhite66, Location: SouthamptonPosted: Wed Aug 18, 2010 6:40 pm ---- I'm looking for a pair of racing seats for my 206, can anyone help me find and also give me information on how I will have to fit them, i.e. Fitting Frames??
#2: Re: Racing Seats Author: |SGP|, Location: Truro/Falmouth, CornwallPosted: Wed Aug 18, 2010 6:43 pm ---- Get 180 seats
#3: Re: Racing Seats Author: jwhite66, Location: SouthamptonPosted: Wed Aug 18, 2010 6:44 pm ---- Where from??
#4: Re: Racing Seats Author: Iain, Location: Aberdeen, ScotlandPosted: Wed Aug 18, 2010 6:53 pm ---- 180 seats are awfully heavy if it's for track use or something similar.
But if it's just for road use, they come up on here and eBay relatively often.
#5: Re: Racing Seats Author: jwhite66, Location: SouthamptonPosted: Wed Aug 18, 2010 6:55 pm ---- Yeh it is just for road use. Ok thanks a lot!
#6: Re: Racing Seats Author: |SGP|, Location: Truro/Falmouth, CornwallPosted: Wed Aug 18, 2010 6:57 pm ---- Sorry I just thought I'd get there first. When people ask for racing/bucket seats they usually want stiff from halfords to look cool in their 1.1's, but they feel horrible, look stupid and don't help in your car.
if this isn't the case then I have no idea about real good track seating.
If it is the case, then don't buy cheapy bucket seats, buy quality gti180 seats that are actually comfortable!
Ok just read your post. Definately go for 180 seats if you afford them! If not, then save up
#7: Re: Racing Seats Author: jwhite66, Location: SouthamptonPosted: Wed Aug 18, 2010 6:59 pm ---- Even though my 206 isn't a gti, can i still expect the seats to fit my 206? If i bought some "206 gti front seats" off ebay, should they fit?

They'll fit no problem.
#9: Re: Racing Seats Author: |SGP|, Location: Truro/Falmouth, CornwallPosted: Thu Aug 19, 2010 2:31 am ---- Gti seats and gti180 seats are completely different, just so you know. Gti seats are pretty much standard I think
#10: Re: Racing Seats Author: Lowercase, Location: East SussexPosted: Thu Aug 19, 2010 2:34 am ---- yea gti seats are the same seats found in the CC and sport (and similar trim levels) only difference being that they are half leather.
Im on the lookout for some recaro's out of the Megane F1
#11: Re: Racing Seats Author: Ape, Location: Clipping the Apex!Posted: Thu Aug 19, 2010 2:50 am ---- A Racing Seat?
I doubt you want one of these:
Which is what you've asked for. I think you mean a bucket seat in the sense of a Gti180 Seat or the type you get from Halfords that all the cool kids buy for their cars.

that looks bone shattering
Try ebay and such like..youll need the correct frame adapters when getting universal bucket seats.
#13: Re: Racing Seats Author: Mr_Cellexe, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Thu Aug 19, 2010 3:40 am ---- meh, all you do to those frames is add padding! like so.
tbh, youre looking for racing bucket seats by the likes of Sparco, OMP, Corbeau, Bride etc etc. plenty of decent bargains around on the net. Found a nice deal on a pair of Sparco WRC seats, subframes, side mounts and 4 point road legal harnesses fro under a grand!
EDIT: btw, they are much comfier than the GTi/180 seats too
#14: Re: Racing Seats Author: |SGP|, Location: Truro/Falmouth, CornwallPosted: Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:06 am ---- Comfier than 180 seats?? Nahh. Get some that blend in with your interior atleast, rather than bright blue or red ones!
#15: Re: Racing Seats Author: sniper1, Location: Warwickshire for home-london for workPosted: Thu Aug 19, 2010 4:48 am ---- demontweeks for race seats
larkspeed for a good deal on all different types of bucketseats
