    E30 Leather Desk Seat

    Is anybody using a stock E30 seat as a desk seat? Since i bought some new seats, i have no use for my leather "non-sport" seats, so i decided to use one of them as my desk seat. It's a little on the low side, therefore i will fabricate a wooden box frame and bolt it directly on to make it an appropriate height!

          I was thinking about it. But then I never got around to it.

          Sold it.

            i used to have my factory non-power recaros from the corrado as desk chairs but they are heavy and bulky for a chair to have in your house and have no arm rests... very easy to knock stuff over with them

            they now sit on my floor and are used as seats for playing gran turismo or live for speed

                          That's pretty damn random.
