Default ATTN: people that own race seats

just some quick background, i have corbeau A4 and these have been in my car since last october, but 1) i stopped driving it from dec-march and 2) since this year i only use it on weekends

now back to my point, is it just the quality of these seats or does this happen to other ones too such as sparco etc etc





maybe i'm just gettin wat i pay for it

maybe i should clarify a lil.....the black plastic piece i am holding is a clip that fell off from the back. if u can see it basically both clips came apart and now you can see the foaming on the inside. i was able to snap them back together but maybe i should glue it up?? i dunno......

still would've never thought this was gonna happen

Sorry, but I think it's the quality of Corbeau seats, but like you said, you get what you pay for. Same thing happened to my Corbeau Forza II seat.. I just snapped it back together, but if it comes apart again I will glue it.

Yeah, I have never heard of something like this happenning to, say, a Recaro seat. Lots of times when people get a new car they take their old recaro with them.

But if they are comfy and otherwise sturdy, I would be happy with the savings.

The same thing happens to my Momo. I just snap it back in place when it happens. Maybe I'll glue it later.

My Sparco did the same thing, snapped back together with a little super glue and never had another problem. No problems with the OMP yet.
