I told you joey, get 4th gen seats, they're cheape, look just as good, and are probably more comfortable 
edit: and you can get the whole 4th gen set for around $400, AND its direct bolt in, so you don't have to buy any mounting brackets or anything else you might need from corbeau
or you could go w/ this from corbeau...

i think those look better, AND they're $80 cheaper... but i still say go w/ 4th gen T/A seats

I just got my Corbeau Carreas's about a mounth ago when we did a GP on them. We got them for $309 a peice which was a smoking deal in my opion. To me they are worth what you pay for them,they look great and are pretty comfortable.

Not for nothing, but I dont see whats great about 4th gen seats. THey look way out of place in the car and really makes the cabin look out of wack. I think leather<or vinyl> 3rd gen seats are the best way to go. Id even go for some 2nd gen seats but i dont know if they fit right.

Real racing doesnt require support for your legs or sides. just a back to the seat.

As for those seats, I think they're really cool. If I had the money, I'd go for them.
