Another option. I used Corbeau A4 seats. They just fit the PS perfectly. I used the stock frames so I still have adjustment on the drivers side. Both remove like stock using the wing-nut. Available through Amazon for $650 for the pair. They will not fit someone over 35" waist. I am 6'2" 200 lbs and they are snug but comfortable.

Nice!
Can you measure how far they are (seat and nose of seat) off the floor.
Just interested if you were able to get them lower than stock seats?
Cheers and nice install
Thanks,
Dan

Those are very nice seats.
When I was at Scott's shop I looked at a set of those already installed in a 710. They put me too high and my head was bumping the pad at the ceiling support.
I opted not to go that route and eventually got a set of Honda seats from a salvage yard. Had to make the plate to put them on and it raises me about an inch higher than the original
seat height. Almost too high to use the dead pedal except with my toes. I put a piece of angle metal under it to get it higher. Sort of feels like putting blocks on your bike pedals when
you were too short to pedal the bike.

Update- I have a pair of the Seats Inc seats from Paul "pcolette" installed with the 1/4" aluminum plate- just like this thread. After driving with them for about a year, I've removed the adjustable tracks to lower them about 1". I'm 5'-9" and they were a little too tall from the floor boards for me or most of my passengers. Driving long distances or pushing the clutch weren't comfortable.

I installed seats taken from the Mercedes microcar called "Smart"
They fit in nicely and allow for using a seatbelt as well
A guy from Germany has created the adapters as seen. You can slide the seats in and out, ike the military seats

How does your seat height compare to the stock seats
I have some Smart seats but I need to be as low as possible!!
Thanks
