Seat Measurements Please
#1
![Question](https://www.rx8club.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Hi folks,
I used to drive an RX-7 and slobber over the RX-8s, but can't swing it yet. I really love the seats in the RX-8, and was thinking about using them in a hot rod project car I'm working on.
If possible, can someone please give me the measurements of the front seats?
I'm specifically looking for:
Thanks so much for your help!

I'm specifically looking for:
- the seat cushion height off the floor (front and back),
- the seat width (at its widest point), and
- the seat back height from the floor.
Thanks so much for your help!

The seats have adjustments that change these dimensions. Some cars have power seats with even more adjustability. You need to specify at lowest, highest, middle, etc.

The leather power seats can raise/lower front and back separately. I think the non-power just have one lever that raises the seat bottom as a whole?

I understand that the seats have some adjustability, but I'm trying to see if they are wide enough for my car, it has a console which I'm keeping, so if its too wide it won't fit, or too narrow and it will look wierd.
Thanks so Much guys for your help!!!
I'll look forward to hearing from you CyberPitz!

Huge hole is huge
Well, since you said you have Leather Seats, that kind of got me thinking. Since I never got around to doing it last night *Never really got home......* I can do it tonight, but I wouldn't place those numbers as truth. Just due to the fact the leather seats have all that heating bologna in it...but as stated, I'll get you my numbers for a good reference.
It will have to be tonight, though. Probably around 8:00 PM CST.

Forget it guys.
While waiting around to get an answer from this board, the seats were sold out from under me.
I hope it wasn't someone on this board that bought them after seeing my thread.
