Thread: Autotecnica Seats - Any good?

Bugger! they do not look suitable for the Defe

i had a set in my 180b sss race car they held me well and were fairly comfy
but i think the side support would be a pain getting in and out of a 4wd

I bought one some time ago. Still sitting in the shed waiting for me to fit it. I didnt get a universal rail for mine though, just the seat but i only paid $120

My seat is buggered so im going to modify the base of my current seat and mount the new one to the slide. The only thing i will need to do is weld some 50mm tube in a square to bolt to the base of the seat and then have that set up to mount the slide from my seat to the 50mm tube, without the 50mm tube the seat would sit in the car to low. Then i need to removed the seat belt bracket from the seat base and weld it to the new set up.

But the seat is comfortable and for the money i reckon they are worth it. Matt

Yeah I could get my current seat repaired by a motor trimmer but then I would still sit to high. The disco seats are very comfortable but I need a bucket style seat so I can see out the front window properly. As I sit at the moment when the middle of the seat is collapsed is a good height, uncomfortable but a good height

Mates got them in his cruiser...

Had them in there for about 4 years...

He loves them, I found them comfy too

You would in a Tojo ute,a milk crate is more comfortable than the stock chairs.

disco seats sit on a raised mount.....maybe you could have a custom base made up to lower whatever seat you fit......
then you can use any seat from any car you like.......whichever you find most comfortable......

you wont have to sacrifice comfort for height this way.......

try before you buy...... a mate had a set in his commodore a couple of years back, lets just say it was NOT suited to my ample posterior......
