Hi,

I am selling my Corbeau Forza racing seats. As you can see in the pics, one of them has some significant cosmetic damage, and the other is in pretty good condition with only minor rips, stains or tears. The red fabric on the tops of the seats are also a bit faded, but once in the car, you cant see too much of it.

These are fixed back, FIA approved racing seats. They can be used in cars, buggys, boats, Karts etc.. They have a bottom mount, unlike side mount Sparco seats. These have never been in a collision, minor or major.

More info on these can be found here http://www.soloracer...rbeauforza.html

These sell for $229 EACH, but due to the condition, I am only looking for $50 for the PAIR.

I will not ship these, I live in South Florida and I can do a local pickup in the Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton, or Delray area. If you have any friends in the South Florida area looking for racing seats for any of the applications listed above, let them know.

Here are a few picures, I can take more detailed pics of all the angles on request.

I made my own brackets which adapted the Corbeau seats to the stock seats.

I am not selling the brackets because I do not want to have any responsibility if the brackets fail during a collision.

Would you consider posting a picture of the brackets and selling them with the disclaimer that they are for test fitting purposes only and are not suited for Driving purposes on or off road..

Either way I respect your decision.

Thanks,
Ryan

I can PM you a few pictures, so you can recreate it on your own for non driving purposes only. All the hardware is steel stock available from any home depot.

Car was not a DD at the time, now it is, thus I have swapped back to stock seats. They are pretty comfortable, but the fixed back forces you to sit with a straighter back.

I've ridden in Ben's car with these seats, they are actually pretty comfortable. Though I could not see myself in them for a long road trip, but for city/sprint driving they are worth it. Its a good deal, you still have them Ben?
Engine build is still up for sale PM me for details.

Exactly, for short trips they are great. Over an hour drive, you start to cramp up a bit if you are not sitting completely strapped to the seat (as they were designed to be used)

Yes I still have them, let me know if you know anyone who's interested, thanks!
