Ralliart Seats Price?

Does anybody know how much it would cost to get some of the front seats from the ralliart into a lancer? I know at least one person has done this, I think it was blacksheepdj, so its obviously got to have some sorta advantage over buying like sparco or corbeau seats, at least price wise.

Yeah I know that much just wondering about price. Unfortunately it'd be next to impossible to get the evo seats up here, since you can only get evos in the states otherwise I would go for those. As it is though, the ralliarts seem like the only option, since a set of torinos would be like $2k.

Just gotta find a Ralliart owner upgrading. They bolt right in, quick install.

Incidentally, I love these seats. They are so much more comfy than the stock seats. And I've heard nothing but good things from my passengers. My girlfriend tells me how much she likes them all the time.

I thought of doing it. You just basically have to wait for a RalliArt driver to upgrade their seats.

FYI - Just to help out, I paid $221 for mine (we split the difference between $200 and $250 and I didn't have a $5 bill with me...), so that'll give you some idea of value. But in the end, it's all about what they're worth to them and you.

I'd be willing to pay what you paid, compared to the competition that seems far. I just find the stock seats somewhat uncomfortable over time, and rather unsupportive. Did you also get the back seats or match the door fabric to the seats?

No, I was unable to talk him out of his backseats and doorskins. So I'm mismatched.

I don't mind it, though. Makes it race-like, I suppose. Like the whole "these are my sporty seats, see how they don't match" attitude.

Definitely. I am so much more comfortable. At first, it was weird with the larger bolsters, but you definitely get used to it. I am very comfy and my passengers love them.

Damn, I definitely got to see if I can find a ralliart driver whos switching out their seats. Hard to find a ralliart driver up here though, and shipping seats from the States would cost a small fortune.

Yeah, I saved a bundle by driving to NY and picking mine up.

Just gotta keep looking. I suggest you add it to your signature. I usually get the most responses that way.
