hey guys, sorry about that I didnt realize how broad of a question that was. But yes I was talking about replacement driver/passenger seats. Like what sizes will be too big as far as racing seats go? I was looking at these http://www.statusracing.com/catalog/...690/index.html

In my personal opinion, unless you're gutting your car and making it a dedicated racecar w/ a cage, your stock seats are much better and more comfortable than any aftermarket racing seat out there. An aftermarket seat will look tacky.

i recommend you do a lot of research on aftermarket seats . i bought the Status Ring FIA approved seats and i can tell you right now that the challenge is the brackets . i hope you don't think it's a "plug and play" kinda upgrade . i am in the process of setting up an appointment with Vivid to get some custom brackets made and installed for my seats .
another thing to consider is the width of the seats , both on the bottom and the shoulder area . there are a few people that bought aftermarket seats and had to do a little chopping of the seat to make them fit in the tight little areas .
do your research before buying
