COBRA one off custome seats!!!!

Thanks to cashy for delivery of my brilliant seats, even though cobra dont have orange as a option, they had just enough left from a one off order to do mine and they look pretty cool, lets hope i dont damage one cause i aint getting another one!!!!

but are a (as expected) very tight fit

im sure ill get them in!

What colour harness should i get, or can i get!!?

With that amount of cash you will have one special car! £12!?

You'll have to go to the shows when it's finished to give some of us lot something to poke at. (or steal bits from...)

According to the Cobra website these seats are 445mm wide at the front... I have 430mm between the tunnel and the side, so the seats would touch and rub the sides at the very least.

Anyone got real life measurements of these seats and seat spaces?

the the side bolsters just push up very slightly! but there is play in them to start with!

not to be fitted for a large person though cause these would push against the plastic and the GRP, and may cause problems, ill let you know when im totally fitted!

Hi Kris,

Did you get them with Cobra runners?

If so, just wondering if the runners would bolt to the Vortx seat rails? Im assuming they would have a few different holes to give you some flex with lining them onto the rails.

Very tempted to use them too.

Hmm, sounds like they need something between the MNR rails and the runners, or can the runners be re-drilled to line up on the rails?

Keep us posted
