In need more headroom in my B5. Would like to gain 2" for helmet clearance. Which seat should I buy? Need something for touring and track days. Thanks

I've heard that the Porsche GT3 seats sit quite low, plus they're ridiculously light and owners say they're still great on roadtrips. I think that you need custom sliders for them in a B5, though. They bolt right into the TTs and MKIV Jetta/Golf If you want something direct-fit, I've drove on Recaro Styles and they're pretty nice - a good blend of comfort and function. You'll obviously be looking at a lot of weight for something like this, though.

We really need more info on what you're looking for to give you a suitable recommendation.

Much appreciate the feedback. I am too long in the waist for the stock seat. Headroom sits at 36" and I need min of 37.5 and 38" would be better. I like a couple of Recaro and Sparco seats I looked at on their websites but I was hoping to benefit from someone else's experience to avoid making a mistake on my selection.
Thank you

I looked at some of the products on JRP's website. I will also and then drop by to see Shawn. Forums are great but nothing can replace a good face-to-face.
Thank you for the suggestion.
