Looking at getting some corbeau seats
Monday, October 18, 2010 7:25 AM
so a buddy of mine showed me some specs on these seats and everything looks killer especially the fact they are comfy for big boys like myself..... but i was curious if anyone had any pics of them in the car and how do you like them overall

I have Black leather'ish Corbeau sport seats in my jeep, and now i bought a nice very lightly use set from a guy on craiglist for my next project. They are pricey but worth every dime, the quality is top notch, and the comfort is the best ever. The down side is the the mounting brackets...MEGA EXPENSIVE!

but they are great seats, very comfy for long drives.

So what's the weight of these seats.
I also notice they're adjustable back rests so that would add some to the weight of the seat along with some adjustability.
Nice looking seats though and you can make your own brackets for the seats to fit while still using your stock sliders.

Buddy of mine on here had a set. Actually really comfy to drive in. If I hadn't put SiR seats in my cav when I had it, I would have sprung for the corbeaus.
The sliders that they sell aren't the best, ball bearings kept popping out.
BoostedCavFire had them, I'll send him the link, and await his response

actualy i had the CR1, link above, their comfy, but im a 250lbs guy and i do deliverys with my car, so they got worn FAST... where the seat belt was touching the seat it wore through the leather, the left leg support was worn to @!#$s from getting in and out and the mid back supports on both seats both wore down passed the leather, also recently the drivers seat where the tilt lever is broke, im assuming it was the frame of the seat. and the sliders are GARBAGE, literaly the first day the ball bearings fell out, was going to send them back but said @!#$ it.

but i did love them, im going to take all the fabric off and fix the seat and get them re apostered (how ever you write that) so match the factory ones.

now this is just my opinion, i did have them for like 2 years and like i said, im a 250lbs delivery guy lol, so would prob last longer if your car wasnt a daily and not delivering. i got mine from http://www.racing-seats-usa.com/ and i also got their pre-made seat brackets, those are amazing and worth the money.

hope this helps yea out man, dont mean to kill your buzz but just trying to help ppl out

FYI for those looking at purchasing seats... a good place to go to is http://www.motorsportseats.com/

I used to deal with them quite a bit - good pricing & good service.
