I love the feel of racing seats. How much weight did you save over the stock seats?

Somehow it doesn't look right in a CLK. Racing seats only looksI good on a two seater sports car like a SL / SLK.

Something about bride and benz.....Bride belongs on japanese cars........but i hope you're gonna be caging your car soon, or else you'll be crushed if your car ever decides it wants to be upside down.

Racing seats (or at least one seat) is a must if you're going to be road racig, it's amazing how much more connected to the car you are when you don't have to brace yourself on every turn-in.

I have Corbeau seats in my track car back home, pretty comfy for the street and awesome for the track. I have 4pt. harnesses as well but use the OEM belts for daily.
