New seats and seat review (Corbeau Forza's)

Here are the Corbeau Forza seats i just put in last month, i haven't had time to upload the pics till now, they are great seats although the brackets were not perfect and had to be forced. Hope yall like, I am sponsored by Corbeau so i had to get harnesses as well, i thought it all came out good.

Is that a harness bar I see in the top pic? If so, please post up more pics of it and where you purchased it from.

What are your thoughts so far on the Forza seats?
How did you become sponsored by Corbeau?

Did you weigh the seats before and after? I hope so... Most people will do this kinda of mod for weight saving.

It is a harness bar actually from CA, its not very good but it would serve its purpose in every way. I negated the harness bar and went right o my rear seat belt mounts with my 4 point harnesses. I got the harness bar for 50$ off a friend and it fits pretty good though.

the Forza seats are great, a definite improvement over my stock recaros

i did not have a scale to weigh them but even my stock seats didnt weigh a whole lot. the brackets weigh the most really, the seats i'd say might be a total of 5lbs lighter together.

yea the tc seats are quite an improvement over the stock s/c seats and are comparable in comfort and cornering feel to the recaro upgrade in the g85's. these forza's by Corbeau really are great tho, i sit snug in the car and i'm not afraid to let the car drive itself into the corners now.

yeh i really love how my seats hold me in place. I do think they are not for those who are kinda whimpy or super whiney about comfort. After about 5hrs straight of driving they tend to get less comfortable

i like mine, the Corbeau Clubmans have more of an angle for people that lean back more. i just couldn't justify the price of reclining seats besides i don't recline anyway.
