Need to get a set of seats and would like something I can just hose off. Found some Urethane ones from Summit for 36 a piece but was wondering if anyone has gotten them for less? Thanks

If you wanna spend alittle money and get real seats but still save money go buy a VW magazine and look for the beard seats on the ads

I have two wheelin buddies who have gotten rid of thier plastic 'danny drag racer' seats. End of the wheelin day, you'll know what I mean....hell, just get some used seats if you want cheap

A little carpet pad under the seatcover helps alot...They are very firm (hard), but they hold you in place in a rollover.

I'm talking about using a harness :flipoff2:

A firm seat with sides lets you cinch down tighter...

...nevermind

I have the cheap Summit racing buckets in my Samurai. I got the set that comes with the black race seat and cover for about $60. I've dumped the Samurai on it's side once and didn't move in the seat at all. Those things really hold you in. I've also got RJS 5-point harnesses, but I usually only use the lap belt. I say go for it; I really like my seats. They aren't too uncomfortable, but they really lean back a lot. ~Steve

I have checked out RCI, Summit...They are all the same they are actually pretty comfy...But JAZ makes a poly seat with a real nice back curve on it and there velour seat cover help out the asspipe... They are a little more expensive than the RCI and Summit, like 5-7 bucks but they are pretty nice...
