corbeau is the only company that makes brackets seperate to fit the cobalt, or you have to custom make them

k those are the corbeaus, trust me. They just say "custom"

my shop bought a bunch of different , well said to be different seat brackets recently for the cobalt because im trying to sell my current racing seats, and funny thing is every backet is identical to the corbeau cobalt bracket, but they are "custom"

so my statement stands corbeau(just people will sell them under their name because corbeau is stingy about selling their bracket without the seat) is the only big company that makes specific brackets, others are hand made customs

dont buy whats cheaper, buy whats the strongest, the bracket is a major part of a seat, and its the strength too

honestly making your own is the best option, brackets dont take into account your options(trust me) you might have to modify to make them clear things, We made our own for my car but ordered a bunch to test and see fitments

stock recaros do not have the airbag sensor either you have to modify them to work with it

i didnt say they were "cheap parts" sometimes the cheapest is the strongest im just saying dont decide on price decide on strength

Oh really! Wow, I thought at least the 06 Cobalt had em.... SON OF A BITCH! I had a set of Redline Recaro's I bought and sold cuz I figured I'd buy the SS/TC seats when they came out, but there to much. The I figured I'd just get some from an SS/SC cuz i thought they had it in em! S O B! thankx for the heads up!
