Well It turned out that I got a better deal on these other seats (gray) so I decided to put those in the car rather than the black ones. Here's a few pictures of the progress....

Image

First I laid down some heat insulation (reflectix - cheap and you can buy it at home depot) with dynamat extreme in certain areas (dynamat first, then heat insulation)

Image

Image

The seats bolted to stock c3 seat tracks

Image



Then the seat bolted in (pass side)

Image

Image



Here you can see that the seats sit higher up than the stock c3 seats, there was only about 2 inches above my head to the ttop pad. Looks like I may be looking into a new roof!

Image



Both seats in with the Simpson Latch race belts (I want shoulder harnesses, but couldn't justify spending the money on the harness bar when I have other things I need, but I have a feeling when spare cash is available, that will be my next mod.

A look back at the old, Eww!
