Carbon Fiber Seats
Well I finally decided on what seats I wanted and made the move. Here is the brackets supplied from Weapon R. They are awesome brackets for sure. They fit right in there.
Now the seats are the full Carbon Fiber NRG race seats. They are awesome seats for sure. Getting in and out of them is tricky right now. As I am not used to them.

NoLimitzLtd, did you keep them? Did you manage to fool the system that someone is in the seat independent of the sensors?
Am I right in assuming their orientation of the modules must be maintained, and they probably shouldn't be located anywhere else but under the seat?

You will get the airbag lights. There isnt much you can do to stop it. Since you are taking out air bags. I kept all the stuff under the passenger seat except the seat sensor. That is built into the bottom cushion.
As for how low I sit. Not to bad really. I am going to raise them up alittle more. I want it a tad bit higher. I was going to do that tonight, but didnt feel like cutting and welding tonight.

Could you "find" some other stock seats and install the sensors on the new rails to get rid of the light? I know some of the suby guys were using resistors to fake out the light . Might be something to look into.

When i changed the seats on my xA i also got the seat belt light. All i did was find the seat sensor and re-attach it to the after market bracket. I made a small hole and tie wrapped the sensor to the bracket in the same position that it was on the OEM seat.

I think those look good, but don't think I could stand them on my daily driver. I'm 6'4" so I am very particular about how my seat is adjusted for driving comfort and need to be able to fine tune it I might consider doing aftermarket seats and just switching them out occasionally though.

They are the large seats. As I am not a small guy. I am 5'9" and 270. LOL..
Yeah if I can find some seats out of something that has been wrecked I will take the sensor out and try it. As for now. It is fine. The seat belt sensor still works. It is the passenger side that has the weight sensor in it. That is the light that stays flasing all the time. But that is low in the dash so I am ok with it for now.

^exactly, you can take everything off the stock seats but not the sensor from the passenger which is what causes the light. i had 2x NRG type-R seats and had that light cause of that but got used to it after. as for daily driving, getting out was kinda difficult and i just can't imagine how much difficult it is for you with those buckets, you probably have to pull on the steering wheel to pull yourself huh..

No I take the wheel off and grab the side of the dash. That is why I cant wait to get the cage built in there now. That will make getting out so much easier.
