The mounts are a bit stiff to use though, as in they basically don't slide much without force. I opted for the double locking sliders.
They are a VERY tight fit in the car. The way the seatbelt reel is situated effectively limits rearward travel. You have to swap the driver and passenger seats such that the recline levers are mounted on the inside by the tunnel which makes it difficult to rear the lever. Then you have to move the buckle, lift the handle, set the angle and work on pushing the adjustment lever back down while you find the locking detent. Once you find it, the seat is as sold as any normal reclining seat (i.e. some give in the back and forth of the seat back, but not a rocking like the standard Vette seats).
I do like them even though they are a very tight fit. I've got maybe a 35" waist with a bit of newfound middle pudge and I'm squeezed in there. However once you hit your first corner and you don't move...
If you've got the power telescoping option you need to pirate the seat module and harness from your driver's seat or you lose that feature.
Had I sat in a set before I purchased them, I may have waited and lost some weight but since they're in the car, I'm keeping them. They look amazing.
