    33 with High Back Seats

    Can someone post a picture of the 33 with high back seats please? I love the look of the roadster seats, but I was reading something about the extra neck safety inherent in having high back seats, but I can't find a picture of the car with high backs.

    Here's a pic of mine without hardtop on and roll bar set higher than FFR spec.
    The passenger side is mounted as low as achievable and the drivers side is high. I have the drivers side on a slider. My thread has a couple more pics. I'm not sure I would run these Kirkeys in a roadster. If you want a head brace try doing a different roll bar style Like some of the guys did and just put a pad on it. If you want a cushy high back then plan on narrowing your tunnel slightly to get it in that chassis. note how close the shoulder pads are. It is tight. These are 16" Kirkeys and they are snug.

    Let me know if you have other questions or need different pics.
