    Question Fast and Furious seats

    Hey guys, and gals. I am trying to find the seat that is in Vin Diesels Mazda RX7 from The Fast And The Furious...Or at least one similar. Any help as to where I could find something like it would be good, as I'm out of options...The only thing I can think of doing is making it myself.

    Nothing in particular...Like to find "weird" hiding spots for stuff that people wouldn't really look.

    When I was younger I used to store my cash in a gutted out hard drive only problem there is people WOULD steal a hard drive...so they would've gotten more than they bargained for...Unless they were stupid, tried to use to, wouldnt work and throw it out :| haha.

    But yeah, just wanted to see if they were buyable, most DIYs I attempt turn into YSHS's (You-Should've-Hired-Someone)

    Sounds like you are trying to hide drugs lol. Joking.


    They could be anything. Possibly a seat they stock over in the states with a custom job over the top.

    Don't worry, my drugs are hidden in the exhaust pipe HAHAHA

    I'm sure it would be a custom job, but I also had the thought that it's a movie, you see the seat once, so it could just be a seat with the bottom ripped off, and sat their to look real...

    Who knows, they might have had a one off made for the movie. You could buy some MONZA racing seats from Repco or something and get a custom job done on those, that will cost you a bit though.

    they aren't going to be very legal if ya cut them up to hide sh1t in them!

    of course... seats must comply with ADR's etc and the ones you saw in the movie definately won't... even custom jobs to look or do the same won't be legal.

    it's a movie, special effects, sets, props etc etc... ie: not real

    There are plenty of things that people shouldnt be doing with their cars...A seat like this in my car would be the least of my worries...IF they were to find out...And the main reason they would state it as "illegal" would be because the seat has been tampered with and could break easier or something like that...

    i know there are plenty of things people do to cars which are illegal, i'm not saying they don't...... my own car has illegal mods but.... not in regards to safety. one thing i won't do is use non complying parts in regards to safety.. that means; seats, seat belts, brakes etc etc.

    How illegal do you want your car to be?

    You wanna put LED's in the seats now?

    if the cops pull you over for all the LED's and go through your car theyll have a fkn field day.
    Your gunna have more defects then you could list.
    Do you really wanna add this seat to your collection?


    Obviously im only saying this to save the cops spendin the day writing paperwork and using tax payers money.
