Hey guys, just wanted to see what people are running for seats. Been thinking about this for a while as its a good way to get rid of some weight , but still not too sure considering its a daily driver. I was recommended some Recaro sports or speeds and since there haven't been any unified seat threads in a while, lets see what people are doing!

BRIDE Euro II:
I am 6'4" about 200lbs and fit similar to stock seats. They offer no extra head room but do provide better shoulder support/waist support. Only advantage I see using these over stock is you can use a 4 point harness with these safely. Though if you are really putting in a harness of that level I would suggest a bucket seat or a Bride low max.

They are not my seats, they are in one of the Baker Tuning cars.
I did get to sit in them a few times and the thigh area is about the same maybe a little tighter but the shoulder/waist area feels a bit more secure.

If you post pics can you also post the specs of the seat like waist width, if it is higher/lower then stock, etc.... any and all info would be appreciated.

Thank you!

They are nice and what I contemplating. What did they do about the airbag warning light? Does it function properly?

You add a relay I believe which makes it function as normal.
Even if you do not add the relay the airbag for the steering wheel works you just have a light on in the dash. On the passenger side, not with the Euro but with other seats you can add the plate which has the weight function for the on/off.
