    I just picked up a corbeau and was wondering where i can find seat rails/sliders that fit the FX1 WIDE version? Is my only choice corbeau rails? I would like to use the side mounts and use a low seat postion slider. anyone have an experience with this? thanks in advance!

    If you build it, they will come.

    Im not looking to turn a profit... though it does sound appealing lol....

    I just want to to be able to drive my car without flying all over. i got a harness too, so between the seat and the harness i should be good

    I don't have an answer, but I have a request:

    Could measure the width of the seat where the brackets mount? I've got a set of brackets that I can get about 15.5 inches apart and need to find a seat that will drop in there.

    Thanks.

    never been very impressed with corbeau. between my personal experiences with them in theatre (some truss spot setups use them) and in cars I have seen.. the covers do not seem to last

    Dyslexia does weird things. I read the title to this thread and was thinking Cordoba. Yes with Ricardo and all his Corinthian leather goodness.

    I actually had one years back. The pivoting bucket seats were beyond cool. But I digress. Sorry for the hijack but I was getting all worked up over the taught of a challenge or babe theme car with Ricardo in all his glory.

    That place might have anything. Scroll down on the home page a little bit, might have some luck there.

    woody, im really sorry i havent had a chance to measure yet, ive been pretty busy, but i will as soon as i can.

    I broke down and ordered a corbeau seat bracket today, i figured if it really does mount it that high i can just fab something up, ill keep everyone posted on how it turns out though. thanks everyone!
