    with these type of seats it might be wise to try sitting in them first to see whether you like the style (autobarn, supercheap,etc..usually have some).
    my brothers capella has racing seats and they arent too comfortable for just driving around, they are designed to keep you in a certain position and you can barely move in them...they are also hard to get out of because of the high sides.
    personally i would get them for a daily driver, they are just too hard and restrictive...it can get quite uncomfortable after long periods.

    M8 had fixed seats in his HJ. I h8ed it, so did he after a while. I'd go adjustable anyway. Monzas any good? I'm pretty sure they meet ADRs...

    Hey Ashley go suss out Repco, they got a pair of Monza seats for like $300 I rekon. And at Pirie they have them on display and people are allowed to sit in them so u could test fit first.

    Those ones on ebay tho look like crap, I wouldn't even get one cheek in them let alone 2 haha!
