A "Heads Up" on these seats. I purchased a pair for my black/orange RS earlier this year. They are VERY DIFFICULT to install if you keep the stock 3 point seat belts in the car. Due to the width of the seats, the vertical and horizontal side bolsters next to the doors and center console will rub in these 2 areas if the 3 point belts are retained. If the 3 points are removed or extenders for the female part of the belts are used, there is barely sufficient clearance.
The seats do look great and offer a good weight savings over the stock RS seats. I would suggest, however, that anyone who may be a bit "large in the butt" will find that the seats are not a good personal fit. Due to the design of the seats, I believe Sparco made them as wide as possible to conform to the "widest" variety of body "styles," hence the fitment problems. Careful with this one.

I am fairly certain that speedware can sell you exteded length female seatbelt receptacles that would make the install easier

I am selling mine in a few weeks. Have had them in for about a year now.
They look and are like new. Here are a few pics. They look so good in my GT3 it's sick. The stitching, leather and alcantara look oem. Like Tiger 6 states above they can be snug for a big person. I'm 5'11" 205 and I fit fine everywhere, But my thighs are a bit wide for these and it gets uncomfortable after and hour or so. If you are more slender they fit like a glove with good lumbar as well. I hate to sell them but I'm not going to track as much and will go back to the oem seats for now.
They work great with the extended female belt recievers which I will include.
See them in the pic's
I paid 5k from Speedware for these plus $275 for the belt recievers.
They do install and fit the car. And the 3 point belts are functional. No problem
My P dealer who installed them can help with questions as well.
$3500 takes the seats and the belt recievers + shipping.
PM me if your interested.

I just poured myself a drink, waiting for some Sunday night humor - expecting it here.
