Tom, is it possible for you to give me a comparative measure of the free space of the seat cushions (by free space I mean the measure between thigh bolsters) of the Sabelt SPS vs the M4 OEM's?

I'm seriously thinking on removing my OEM's due to a size problem.
Thanks in advance!

Could these seats be used in an e92?

Absoutely! We stock SPS seats and all accompanying hardware for when you're ready.

Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.

Would have been if it was lighter than the oem seats. If its more comfort you are looking for then its a solid buy.

No pics in M235 yet, will need coding in order to prevent errors.

I find this hard to believe. So you're saying a racing seat is more comfy than stock seat even for a fatty like me?

IMHO this would be better called as a Sport Touring seat, Sabelt classifies it as a Racing seat. Everyone's that's come by to try them out has nothing but good things to say. The yellow stitching matches the Austin Yellow paint quite well.

Cool seats! They certainly look the part. Really shocked they aren't designed to be substantially lighter given it's all manual controls.

Nonetheless, if you're not budgeting at all, these seats would be awesome with carbon cloth or black interiors. That exposed carbon shell is to die for.

@EAS - do they do custom colors to match the other interiors? or only black with the color stitching?

-also, are you planning to sell a version of your carbon rear seat head rest shells to match the carbon on these seats?

kitw · 08-22-2015, 02:55 PM

Is there an option for seat heating and lumbar support?

Man, I feel like a Grandpa asking this, but I have a bad back and place a great deal of importance on comfort

SPS seats are only available in black, but have options for different color stitching. Obviously, the yellow goes great with the AY color on our shop M4 - some even mistake it at first for OEM. The carbon rears really set off the interior, while Sabelt does off a less costly option without carbon.

Wouldn't call it that at all, comfort is everything. Here's the various modes of adjustment:

Heating is not an option, sorry.

Thanks

I have sat in these seats and it felt very comfortable.

It also held me tight enough to make corners little harder than normal.

Top notch product indeed

Stunnerable · 09-04-2015, 08:07 AM

A Sakhir Orange option would be pretty epic!

F83 · 09-04-2015, 06:32 PM

F83?

997usa · 09-04-2015, 07:18 PM

We need some of these for the F83's - with the seatbelts integrated.
