any one have autotecnica A999 seats in a 1200 ute?? im thinking of getting one for my ute but unsure if it work with the shape of the back wall and if it will need to lean too fare farward and sit weird??? any help would be great, cheers.

seat can be seen here... top right: http://www.autotecnica.com.au/seats_2.html

i got one in my sedan ... i wouldn't be keen if it was a daily driver !! not a great deal of padding in them. not sure how it would sit in a ute ?? i can take some sort of measurements or a pic if you want ?

.... other than that this was a pretty useless response

cheers, would love a pic to see the back rest angle and how well they fit in there... ive sat in one before and they felt good..

I will have a pair of black/grey Autotechnia recliners with matching steering wheel for sale in the next few days.

more details please..

boof your seats are fine for daily driving, just cant to jumping in and out of them

yeh teh A999 are really comfy, I guess because they are moulded, unlike the metal framed OBX bucket I have, which is still fine for daily driving, but not as comfortable.


Take your ute (minus passenger seat) to repco/whoever has them as floor stock and ask if you can sit one in the ute and see how it fits. I cant see them saying no...

i've got some sparco sprints in my ute and they pretty much follow the back wall perfectly.

its comfy enough for a bit of driving ... but 2.5hrs each way to phillip island from home and 4 sessions on the track got a bit much !!
but it is comfy enough i guess for a few daily type trips ... but there's no way you're getting in and out of it in a hurry !!

i'll try get a pic tonight for you ?!

there's no sliders in my setup as it was put in for track days, it sits real low compared to standard and most other seats i've had in the sedan. it can also go lower if you notice the mount points on the top pic. the front mounts are at the highest slot and the rears are 1 slot down. with the front and the rear at the top the seat sat too upright when you have a helmet on, it could probably even go down one more slot in the rear.
cheers
