I would like to have some of those myself!

Love them. I got a quote for $400 to rebuilt/recover each of my Z seats... for that price I will be getting a pair of what you just posted. (and saving a bit of money too)

They look great! Did you test them first before putting your hard earned $$$ down? Always make sure your butt fits before the wallet comes out...

Thanks for that info Hoover. I'm not the tallest of guys (6'0") but I have a really long back, so seat height is important! (plus I want to be able to sit there without my helmet rubbing the roof) The stock Z seat isn't too bad for height, I just wish there was some way to make it hold tight!!

So a 22" wide seat will fit an early Z no problem?

If you were to keep the stock seats what kind of safety belt would you use? I want to buy some simpsons but don;t know what length or kind to buy.

Those are nice seats. There actualy $320 now. I plan on getting those myself

Hoover, I have the exact same seats that you refer to and have the same problem for my 6' 2 frame. When you took the seat rails out, how did you re-strengthen that area?

Hoover, I can't remember the exact model of Recaro that I have but it looks very similar to the Corbeau in the thread. It has the high Shoulder wings and an electric height adjustment (yes it was extremely expensive but has done wonders for my back ;o))
The wings only narrowly miss the door if I have the seat back in a fairly upright position, but as stated in an earlier thread you feel like you are sitting on the car not in it, and I'm looking down out of the front screen.
I'll have a look tonight at the floor rails with the mod that you've done and see how it goes. I was just a little concerned that it might take out the structural rigidity.

FYI The Recaro mounts work fine with the recaros (not to high) but the adjustable height z mounts need to be cut. They have 3 holes for height adjustment and you need to cut them down to one on the back mounts, Jeff
