Thanks for the links, I have seen a lot of Corbeau seats in cars at DE's and I don't see where Corbeau seats are FIA approved. Can anyone shed any light on this? I am looking for PCA approved DE seats and harnesses.

Again, I am out of my depth with regard to aftermarket race seats. However, it's my understanding that in certain applications (maybe not DE's), an aftermarket race seat must meet FIA approval. Hopefully, someone else will chime in .

p.s. From what I can tell, there's been some inconsistencies over the years with regard to what FIA approved seats Corbeau exports to the US .
