Size/Fitting guide

The 2 Cobra Classic GT Bucket Seats is a seat from Cobra Seats, supplied from stock. Seat choice comes down to how the car is used. A fixed-back bucket holds you best and is what competition regulations expect, but it is harder to live with on the road. A reclining sports seat gives up some support for adjustment and everyday usability.

Choosing the right seat

Seat choice comes down to how the car is used. A fixed-back bucket holds you best and is what competition regulations expect, but it is harder to live with on the road. A reclining sports seat gives up some support for adjustment and everyday usability.

A competition seat needs a vehicle-specific fitting frame, and usually side mounts as well. Check the seat width against your car’s tunnel and sill before ordering, because a wide shell in a narrow car is a common and expensive mistake.

We have been supplying motorsport kit since 2003, so if you are unsure between two options, ask.

What to check before you order

A handful of details decide whether this seat suits your car. These are the ones that matter.

Brand: Cobra Seats. Check this against what you already run before ordering.
Approval: Road & Track. Check this against what you already run before ordering.
Cobra Trim options: Black Vinyl outers/Black Basketweave centres/Piping. Check this against what you already run before ordering.
Eyelet Options: Not Required. Check this against what you already run before ordering.
Headrest: Headrest Included. Check this against what you already run before ordering.

If any of it does not match what you have, ask us before you buy.

Buying the 2 Cobra Classic GT Bucket Seats from SportSeats4u

Stock is shown live on this page. If you need the 2 Cobra Classic GT Bucket Seats for a specific event date, tell us when you order and we will confirm the lead time up front.

We have been in the motorsport trade since 2003, supplying club racers, race teams and workshops across the UK and exporting worldwide. That means the advice you get on fitment comes from people who use this kit, not from a spec sheet someone copied over.

If you are buying for yourself and you are torn between two options, call us. Five minutes on the phone usually settles it.

2 Cobra Classic GT Bucket Seats questions

Will the 2 Cobra Classic GT Bucket Seats fit my car?

The seat needs a vehicle-specific fitting frame to mount to the floor. Tell us the car and we will confirm which frame you need alongside it.

Is it FIA approved?

Check the approval listed in the specification above. FIA-approved seats carry an expiry date, so check that too if the seat is for competition.

Can I use my standard seat belt?

With a reclining seat, usually yes. With a fixed-back bucket and harness slots, a harness is the safer answer, and some competition regulations require one.

How do I know what size I need?

Measure across your hips and compare against the seat width in the specification. If you are between sizes, go up, because a seat that is too narrow gets painful quickly.

Not sure the 2 Cobra Classic GT Bucket Seats is the right choice? Send us your car details or what you compete in and we will confirm before you order.

Reclining and road sport seat size guide

Road sport and classic seats are sized the same way as a competition bucket seat, on your waist rather than your chest, but they are cut far more generously. Many are listed as suitable for all sizes, which you will never see on a competition shell.

Base mount or side mount: know the differenceThese seats are still bucket seats, but nearly all of them are base mount: four threaded holes in the underside of the seat, bolting down onto runners or a subframe. Competition shells are the opposite, almost all side mount, fixing through brackets on the sides of the shell. The two systems are not interchangeable, so if you are swapping a competition bucket for a reclining seat or the reverse, your existing brackets and subframe will not carry over. Budget for the right mounting as well, and see our seat mounting and fixing points guide for which is which.

Measure yourself sitting

1Sit on a hard, flat chairFeet flat, back straight against the chair back. No cushion.

2Measure across your hipsThe widest point, side to side, sitting down.

3Take your waist standingAround the natural waist. This is what our seats are listed against.

You have more latitude here than with a competition shell. A reclining seat with a steel frame and foam padding will settle to you over a few hundred miles in a way a fibreglass shell never does.

Waist bands

Band	What it is
All sizes suitable	Generously cut with a flat or lightly bolstered base. Most of the classic and retro shells sit here
32 to 36 inch	The standard adult fit
36 to 38 inch	The wider shells, worth starting with if a standard shell has ever felt tight

Nearly all of this range suits all heights, so unless you are unusually tall the height filter will not narrow things much. Start with the waist and the look.

Cobra seat dimensions

Cobra publish a dimension drawing for every seat they make, and these are their figures. Height is floor to the top of the seat with the base flat on the ground, width is across the widest point, depth is front to back. All in millimetres.

Seat	Height	Width	Depth	Weight (kg)
Classic (with headrest)	710	480	700	6.0
Classic RS	725	490	760	8.7
Classic RSR	820	480	760	8.5
Roadster SR	570	490	700	6.3
Roadster SS	550	540	740	6.4
Roadster XL	580	525	600	8.0
Roadster 7	750	460	720	7.0
Cub (with headrest)	680	460	650	8.5
Interlagos	725	500	760	7.0
Nogaro Speedster	700	560	710	7.5
Clubman	850	515	630	9.2
Le Mans	820	540	620	13.4
Daytona	865	580	620	13.5
Misano	885	590	620	11.5
Stuttgart	800	520	530	13.2

Every Cobra seat listing on the site also carries these figures, plus the base width, on its Additional information tab, so you can check the exact model and edition you are looking at. For other brands, dimensions are on the listing where the manufacturer publishes them.

Reclining or fixed back

Most of this range reclines, the rest are fixed back. A reclining seat is the obvious choice for a car you drive on the road, for passengers, and for anything with a back seat you need to climb into. A fixed back is lighter, stiffer, and holds you better on track, at the cost of being a nuisance every other day of the week.

If the car does both jobs, reclining is usually the right answer. A fixed back seat in a daily driver wears thin quickly.

How this range differs from a competition bucket seat

	Road sport and classic	Competition buckets
Fixing	Almost all base mount	Almost all side mount
Mechanism	Mostly reclining	Fixed back
Approval	Road and track use	Mostly FIA approved for competition
Frame	Steel frame with foam padding	Fibreglass or carbon shell
Sized on	Waist, and most take all sizes	Waist, in narrower bands

Only a handful of seats here carry FIA approval. If you need an FIA seat for competition, start in the bucket seat range, not this one.

What comes with it

Most of these are sold as the seat only, and some come with sliders. Check which before you order, because a base mount seat still needs runners and a subframe to get into the car. Where sliders are included it is usually the pairing the manufacturer intended, which saves working out the handle width yourself.

Trim, and how it wears

The trim is the part you will actually live with. Vinyl wipes clean and takes sun without fading, which is why it is the usual choice for an open car. Velour and cloth are warmer to sit on in winter and hold their colour indoors. Tartan and houndstooth are period correct for a classic and they are the reason a lot of people buy these seats in the first place.

Alcantara and suede look and feel the best of the lot and are the worst choice for a car that lives outside or gets used in wet overalls.

Tell us the car and what it doesWhether it is a road car, a weekend classic or something that sees track days, plus your waist and the car. The mounting is the part that catches people out and we would rather sort it before you order. Call 0115 989 3488 or email Sales@GSMPerformance.co.uk.
