Jamesy Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Just bought a pair and wondered if they've ever been fitted to a supra before? One is standard width, the other XL width. I am a tad worried the massive head rest wont fit inside the car??

jimojameso Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Ha ha only one way to see if they will fit!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra Gaz Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I have seen the Recaro wrap around jobbies in a supra, they are just as big, I remember helping fit them, he had to put them in off the rails, then bolt the rails on with them in the car, it was...... Interesting to do. They will be fine mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Dont worry its all in proportion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Anyways just been and tested them in the old car and had about an inch to spare - however that was them resting on the floor - once on side mounts may be a bit less clearance but still should fit absolutely fine. Phew Now i just need to get them looking right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Good stuff, they will look great i think, id get the rails to fit spot on before you retrim, you dont want to damage the new retrim trying to fit them later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin-mkiv Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Those seats would never leave me enough room to get in there with them! haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Id Just buy a set of black covers from corbeau and stitch some DO-LUCK logos in them, or maybe even dye your grey ones black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Yeah ive been considering dying them black. But then the corbeau logo would go wierd no? Can you believe corbeau wont sell a complete cover seperate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
