After struggling for a year without success to find a comfortable seating position in the Porsche Sport Seats, I elected to install Cobra Misano 30's in my 2008 C2. I'm not a big guy, but for me the shoulder bolsters on the Porsche seats were just too narrow. I ended up with a neck ache every time I drove the car long distances. I also didn't like the way the headrest leans so far forward relative to the seat backs.
The Misano's were installed last week and so far I am very happy with the results. The shoulder bolsters are much wider and overall the seat holds me in place better during spirited driving. I also like the look of the seats with black leather, contrasting gray stitching and carbon fiber backs. The seats also have a release to tilt them forward so that I can get my kids into the back seat.
I purchased the seats from Sube Sports in Huntington Beach CA, and had them professionally installed by BBI Autosports (also in Huntington Beach). I thought about installing the seats myself, but after seeing everything they had to do, I'm glad I opted for professional installation. The fit is tight, but they work well. I have plenty of headroom and the seats are adjustable forward and back. The guys at BBI were great and did a fantastic job.
As expected, the airbag light went on after the install due to the removal of thorax airbags in the stock seats. I am going to the dealer later this week to see if they can reset the light.
Attached are pictures of the end result.
