I'm looking at the Corbeau A4 seats for the gen 3 coupe. Anyone using them? interested to understand how well they fit relative to the seat belt anchors and how the backrest reclines towards the back (where is first contact and how close can they get to the roll bar). also curious if you got the "shaved" or the standard cushion thickness. I would likely mount them on their 1" tall sliders C22059. thanks in advance

Can't help you on the coupe but I have those seats in my '67 Camaro vs the Kirkey high back seat I have in my Cobra.
The A4 is a nicely built seat. The problem I am having in the car is the side bolsters seem narrow. I am 6'3" and 210ish. Also it could just be the way they sit in the Camaro but Im not real impressed with the under thigh support. Really after about 45 minutes it is not a very comfortable seat for me. I am very pleased with the Kirkey in the Cobra but it may just be personal preference. Not trying to suggest you put the Kirkey in the Coupe, just saying from a visual standpoint I love the Corbeau but from a siting and comfort stand point they leave a lot to be desired in my application at least.

I had the A4s in my cobra with the Breeze brackets, and I think I had to also offset them a bit using 3/4 box tubing. They fit good and I really liked them, however I don’t think the shoulder wings fit with my APE top, but I can’t recall. I ended up going to the vintage seats for period correct purposes.
