Bigger seats for FD3...

[suba]

I\'m not sure if this is in the right section of the forum, so apologies if it needs to be moved.

I have owned a 95 fd3 for arounf a month now, with the \'carbon effect\' seats.  I\'ve noticed that whilst the back of the seat is fine for me, the actual \'seat\' section pinches on my hips/Ar*se.  The passenger side seat does not for some reason.

I can\'t remember the suede seats being like this on others cars that I test drove - are they different seats rather than different finishes?

I\'m quite a big chap - 6ft2 and 16 stone or so.  I\'ve sat in a mazda speed seat whilst visiting super7, which fitted me perfectly.  Are there any other different seats which I could look at buying that dont cost the earth (money is going towards tuning and making sure the car is mechanically perfect from the off.)

Thanks.:yes

Probably just the wear on the drivers seat, probably collapsed a bit. Try getting a standard seat that isn\'t so old.

Bump - can anyone recommend some aftermarket seats that are suitable for big fellas - preferably that dont cost the earth?:cheers

Did you buy those retrimmed seats in the end?

[suba]

Yep, both the seats and the door cards - not sure how you knew about that though?:yes

Recaro Speed fit in a FD, so do most of the Brides
