Default Sparco Evo's L fitment

Hello all,

I am considering Sparco Evo L race seats and want to make sure they fit in a 993. Let me know if anyone has or had them installed and any feedback you might have. Thanks

If nobody responds, post up the dimensions of it, particularly the width of the outside of the seat between the side mounting surfaces. If it's the proper width (like Recaros) then install is a breeze. If not, then you gots a whole heap of trouble. BTDT.

I'll have to check what width you want but I think it's like 15.5"? Something like that.

Saw an instal in a 996, it was awfully tight - required shaving the side of the seat so that the door could be closed.

I have a pair of Sparcos. They WILL fit but they are tight...especially against the tunnel. It took some "persuasion" to get them over enough to fit the brackets to the mounts. But I did the install myself. Pic included below.

My Recaro SPG XLs fit pretty easily. I think Recaro took an imprint of my **** and torso when they designed this seat. Extremely comfortable and a perfect fit for me ( 5'10", 190 lbs, 35 in waist, 44R coat)

I have an Evo L for the Pax and a Pro 2000 for me. They fit fine. I think two Evo L's would be challenging at the shoulders. Here's a shot, let me know if you have any specific fitment questions.
