Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: brian e on August 07, 2014, 19:46:06 pm What is the knob between the seats for, and what do the back side of these seats look like? Are they finished on the back side, or just raw chop gun looking?
Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: speedwell on August 07, 2014, 19:52:01 pm nicolas you're right about scott's seats
but his speakers look too modern , i woul dlike to do a mix , under new one or used one i've in my black car , and add some old speakers covers on ,and doing something to put an Ipod or my cell phone to works with them , like this i don't have to put a radio on my dash ;-) Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: speedwell on August 07, 2014, 19:54:20 pm brian there's no finish , just the fiberglass
for me it's a kind a light cigar ; but not sure (http://images.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/pix/4705000.jpg) Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: Eddie DVK on August 08, 2014, 10:22:23 am Hi, not a relevent question but are they much lighter then the normal seat.
sorry for the off topic. Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: Lee.C on August 08, 2014, 10:28:26 am Probably around the same weight when its all fitted etc.....
I would imagine its pretty "Thick" fibreglass to give it some strength...... You could always get Rob to make a "Race-Weight" one ;) :D :) Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: Zach Gomulka on August 08, 2014, 13:34:00 pm I've never weighed one but they are much lighter than a stock seat.
Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: Lee.C on August 08, 2014, 14:52:46 pm I stand corrected ;)
Title: Re: empi rear bucket seat advertising Post by: speedwell on August 08, 2014, 16:49:48 pm Eddie, Just the basis either the complete seat ???
if it's just the basis , may be same weight , i never weighed mine , but i removed mine last sunday and that's not heavy |
