BrazilBoy Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Heres the brackets...It may sit higher than stock so get out the measuring tape before you order..http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/performanceparts/Mitsubishi/Starion/Interior/Seat_Brackets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project83 Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 I've been looking at getting those seats also, but i think i'm going to scout around the wrecking yards and see if i can find some i can try out of different cars first before i commit my rear to seats i've never sat in. If you know anybody that welds you can get brackets made to make most any seat fit as long as it's small enough to go in the space to begin with.

BlackBII Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 I got these for $280 shipped. Much better than the factory Leather Seats. I had to make some custom brackets to bolt the new seats Tracks' to the cars floorboard. The new seat tracks were a few inches narrower than the factory tracks. https://www.upscaleautomotive.com/p-45582-cipher-auto-racing-seats-pair-black-w-white-stitch-cpa1016fbk-ww.aspx http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m205/danteinien/Starion/IMG00002-20100805-0920.jpg http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m205/danteinien/Starion/IMG00001-20100805-0920.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Dont Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 How did these fit up and do they seem to be decent quality? My seats are made by the same company as the ones above and they are great quality for the price, I made my own brackets from some 3/8" flat bar at the local hardware store.
