Sparco seat headroom
Hi everyone,
I know the installation of Sparco seats has been discussed several times. I still have two questions.
1. How much headroom will I get after putting a Sparco seat in my 993?
2. Will I be able to use original seat belt?
Thanks in advance

1. You will get somewhere around 1" lower than stock depending on mounting. I useed BK mounts with sparco sliders which raises the set up a little.
2. There are various ways of mounting the stock seat belt buckle back in. I used a sub strap feed thru the original belt buckle then snaped in at the tunnel mounted Eyebolt that I drilled for. This allows me to unhook the stock seat buckle and hook in a 5 point harness for track events.
See other post's that I maid about the seat belt buckle for more details.
Hope this helps,
Mark S.
