You get what you pay for.

Check out the $60 paging alarm. I'm sure that thing is reliable. :D

I'd stick with the worn out stockers over those, personally.

Personally, it's important to me to get a seat that's FIA approved. The last thing I would want if I were to get in a wreck is have a seat break on me, which is a real possibility. I'm sure that many aftertmarket seats would pass FIA approval, but most of them don't get tested so you're left guessing (which I don't like).

That and those particular seats just look as cheap as they are priced. Pay a couple of hundred bucks more and you can get into some entry level Recaro, Sparco, or Bride seats. Corbeau and Cobra or also a couple of other reputable seat makers that you can feel safe in and offer some seats that are priced reasonably.

harout those look exactly like the cheap ebay one but are just more expensive. how do we know those are not the same as the cheap one just with larger price tag to make u think they are better?
