Hey NovaGuys & NovaChicks,

maybe i have brain fade, i dunno... a while back when i was searching out seats i could have sworn the "Scat ProCar" were availabe in a "wide", but now that i look again i see only the std seats... were the wider seats discontinued ???

not ta say i'm fat and need a W-I-D-E seat... well, let's leave that one alone shall we ???


anyone have any thoughts on the wider seats ???


Thanks ;)

All I know of is the option to have or not have bolsters.

yeah, that's the issue... (no, not your point Bill ;) ) i'd like to have the bolsters but because i'm 260 (?) i don't want real narrow ones... i'd just wear out the seats quicker. wouldn't ya think ??? (here come the remarks :rolleyes:)

i have a set of late '80's-early '90's Honda seats in the wagon and know i need better support for my back. the Honda "style" seats with no headrests are what i'd like to find, but wide enough for me...

maybe i should be asking...

Hey, any of you large guys runnin' a Honda "style" seat, if so, what ya runnin' ??? :D

Being considerably smaller than you I will be of no help. But really that won't stop me from putting in my 2 cents.
I bought a pair of 95 Firebird seats with reclining backs and a power drivers side. They are real comfortable. Found them on the local Craigslist for $50. If you can get a power seat I would recomend it. Some seats even have adjustable lumbar sections which may ease the pain in your.....back ;)
