Message:
Anyone ever installed a set of racing seats in their Dakota? Something like the R1 seats or similar. I want to get a set but I'm wondering about the difficulty of this install. And if anyone has any pics of their install, email them to me at low97dak@hotmail.com. Thanks for any help.

i have the Corbeau CR1 seats... not too hard to install. I used my factory brackets and only had to drill two holes on each one (the other two mounting holes lined up)

Jeff, like your seats. i am looking for yellow ones right now myself. You said they cost $300. Did you have to buy anything else to make them fit? Brackets. bars, etc.? Where did you get them? How do you like them, fit? Thanks, please email me at vball005@yahoo.com -jacob

Jeff, I found these seats on ebay. My main 2 questions are 1) I have a 38" waste and I am a large guy, how do these seats fit? 2)HOw are these for an install. Do you need custom brackets, sliders, etc.? Thanks, Jacob

Jeff,
Thanks for the response. Just bought the seats. I don't know of anyone around here that makes cross braces. I have a 1999 Dakota R/T. Not sure if it is the same fitting as yours. But if you friend does side stuff see if he would make them for me and how much he would do it for. Let me know either way. Got the seats now just have to get them in :) Thanks, vball005@yahoo.com
