I had troubles gettting Sparco Torinos into both my 95 and 98 Mitsu Eclipses . It may be that Mitsu makes the doors too thick ....

You might check out Corbeaus ... there a a few choices in your price range ... even claim to provide a sliding mounting bracket for the Yaris on their web page.

edit: Sabretooth has CR1 [http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=12006] and I just sent him a PM about it. He has them on Weapon-R brackets

sorry, no lunch for me tomorrow as punishment. Tenzo has some really nice carbon fiber reclining seats for about $600 each.

Sabretooth · 03-23-2009, 02:51 AM

ok, heres my chime in... everywhere I go, I get compliments left and right, so here some info on my feedback from my cr1 seats with weapon r brackets

corbeau cr1 seats are really nice in grey cloth. They are uber comfortable, everyone I know thinks they are snug feeling, but I have the wider versions, which are like 1 inch wider in the waist..but are really good feel, better comfort than stock, and are more comfortable than our fleet trucks at work, which that says something in a 2000 leather seat built for long distance driving ..they look stock from a distance, and even the wide versions are not too wide, pending you drill or get brackets made properly.

as for weapon r brackets, they do sit crazy high for racing seat brackets, ive sat in a yaris with bride seats and custom bracks and it was a totally different feeling, weapon r sits about an inch higher than stock...depending on the seat height, but at the value its a good buy if your on a budget. i got them for now until i can afford some wedge brackets or to have them custom modified to be lower.

ny whole seat setup with harnesses and brackets were as follows
seats: $360 via craigslist local sale
brackets : under $90
harnesses: under $190

complete setup for driver and passenger for less than $700.

as a reminder, weapon r brackets will not bolt up to anything more than a sparco or weapon r seat.
oh and i apologize for the lack of puctuation due to my g1 phone.

I think I am going to go ahead and starting calling my car the Budget track Yaris...
About 75% of the cost of mods of my car, has come from preowned items that I got at a killer deal!
