after market seats anyone?

Love the JCW seats made by sparco but I think the price of $ 1300 p/seat is way too steep (this is for sparco milano in leather no JCW logo). If you have any other sparco seats namely milano or torino I would like to hear your input. Also any information regarding other seats will be appreciated.

Momo is another good and cheaper alternative. If weight is a factor, the rs gt's weigh in around 16lbs...same as a sparco fighter or roadster.

If looks and adjustability are what you are after the sparco milano alcantara, monza, and torinos (in that order) are definitely the sweetest.

I've got the Torino's. really nice seats, snug. Get the proper resistor for the yellow plug before you start the car, otherwise your airbag light will be lit.

400-600 mile from SoCal to NorCal, no complaints.
