Racing Seats?!?

hi,
I have a sport liberty and the seats are pretty ugly and uncomfortable. I was wondering if anyone has made the switch to those racing seats yet and if so how are they. Do they change the driving experience...for example do they lower your body position.....

Thanks

I can't stand the seats either, there is no lateral support and the bottom cushions are too short.

I am interested in seeing the responses.

i hate the seats in my 04 sport. but the bad news is from 04 and up you cant change the seats. 04 and up have a airbag bladder built into the seats which tells the air bag computer how much the person weighs seating in the seat.

Mastercraft has a new reclining suspension seat... they are super comfy and should be available around January

I have a 2002 Limited with the heated leather seats. I think they are confortable for the most part but they wear pretty bad. I clean and condition them all the time and they still look a little beat.

I would consider trading them out but I dont think I would want to give up the heat.

Mastercraft is a little pricy and I was wondering if I only had to buy the seats. I mean do I have to buy a different set of railings or what?! :?:

Yea, the leather does seem to wear alittle to fast. Im currently sitting on towels to keep wear down. Maybe someday ill get seat covers, at $300, it may be awhile.

I thought of those too, I might invest in them too eventually depending on how bad they get. I thought it was a little odd that they arent full leather but they have the cloth or mesh on the sides too. I see replacement factory leather seats on Ebay all the time, they would be a good price but shipping kills you.
