Is this too Blingy?

Found these on the internet:

Cheaper than a QT Seat, but do we consider them too Cheshire for a Defender?

Not at all, if you've got it flaunt it.

puffin1 · Jun 23, 2013

not for me but would look good in black .

JohnM70 · Jun 23, 2013

I just wonder if they would fit into a truck cab and leave any leg room other than the small amount already provided!

IMO Flaunting this sort of thing implies you certainly don't have, it.

dont do it, im currently trying out a sparco (solid) bucket seat in my 110 5 door, every time you want to get in/out you have to push the seat back fully to get out, even then its awkward as ####, and when you get in with your hands full you cant sit your arse up into the seat and pivot in, because theres a side on the seat. drives me nuts, but i got it free and said id try it out. very comfortable when you are in it, but a bitch to get in and out of...

Dont look too bad, but i recon your going to ave an arse getting into them trying to get over the leg area..

Litch · Jun 23, 2013

Agreed, getting in & out is a pain, better to find some decent conventional seats that are both comfortable and practical.
I had Recaro seats in my 90 for many years. They were styled like a normal seat and had adjustable height, lumber, tilt, recline etc yet held you in place very comfortably. When I went back to standard seats (my wife struggled to depress the clutch with the Recaro's) I found I was not held in anything like as firmly.

Maybe for your lowered saxo? Not for the Fender surely

suew · Jun 23, 2013

There is no such thing as too blingy

They dont look very comfortable though

To blingy for a Landy, twisted recaros if you want buckets ;-)

£1272 for a seat???!!

Anyone had any experience of the QT seats? The blurb says they give more legroom, but they don't look very comfortable

Sides are to high

I'v got seats a bit like this

BLACK RECLINING BUCKET CAR SEATS WITH RACING HARNESSES | eBay

JohnM70 · Jun 24, 2013

They look OK and I do like the price!

Alc · Jun 24, 2013

I have bucket seats in mine and i really get p'ed off with them, just like defender110 said because of the side on them ya cant pivot with hands full.

Soon ill be sourcing normal seats because my little girl will be out of her baby seat soon so need room to fit a middle seat.

Dont do it lol
