Has anyone installed aftermarket sports seats?

[Panda Eyes]

I'm looking at design/ colours to fully retrim the interior in P4NDA, and thought maybe getting aftermarket sports seats for the front and matching the rest? wondering what people have found good- eBay generic? Brand name seats? Assuming original rail would be used to install.

 

Any advice appreciated.

 

Cheers

Havnt installed them in my falcon but did have aftermarket seats in my GTR, had a genuine recaro for the drivers seat and a replica for the passenger... ( I bought the car this way) tbh from a visual perspective was hard to tell difference unless you looked really closely but me being anal I wanted to swap it out, much heavier then a genuine recaro and the padding material was no where near as good...... recaro make a great seat though 

 

also if you do go the aftermarket sport seat route check dimensions carefully some recaros (and other aftermarket seats) are a super tight fit, I was really fit during the time I owned the GTR and I always struggled with the leg bolsters now 20kgs heavier I don't think I'd fit in to them hahaha

About 7 yrs ago I put in some gtp replica buckets in my fg2. Retains the side airbag functionality for a street daily. There were a few companies who could rebuild stock seats into sports buckets.

 

Edit. Think it was proseat I bought from
