Two Mirco RTX-7 seats in black 3D SpaceTech, 688 for the pair. Fibreglass, fixed back, side mount, FIA 8855-1999, four or six point harness compatible, HANS friendly, black, for 32 to 36 inch waists and drivers over or under six feet. Seven pairs sold.
Two of the seat we sell most
The RTX-7 in 3D has 43 sales as a single, and seven people have bought this pair. It is 349 each and 688 as two, ten pounds under two singles, with both seats from the same run of mesh in one order.
Why 3D on a pair
The mesh-faced trim breathes. Two seats in a car that gets hot on track are better in 3D than velour, and it costs the same.
The shell
Mid-range in Mirco’s line, more wrap through the sides than a GT, and noted for tall and short drivers alike. The blue-stitch limited edition pair is the same 698 if the car wants a colour.
Before you order two
Each seat has its own FIA 8855-1999 label and date. Four point or six point belts fit, and a HANS needs the six. Side mount, so budget for two pairs of side mounts plus the frames for the car; give us the car and we will put the list together.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: One pair only: the Mirco RTX-7 Blue Stitch Limited Edition has landed in the showroom, and A Mirco RTX-7 in a sim rig: fitting an FIA bucket seat to an aluminium profile cockpit. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will I fit in this seat?
The maker sizes this seat for drivers over 6ft and under 6ft in height with a 32in to 36in waist. Those are the paper numbers; how a seat actually feels to sit in and climb out of is a different question, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so call us with your height and waist and we will give you the honest answer.
Is it FIA approved, and for how long?
Yes, it carries FIA 8855-1999 homologation. Every FIA seat has a not-valid-after year printed on its homologation label, and that label date is what a scrutineer checks, so look at the label on the seat you receive and check it against your championship regulations. Buying new means you get the freshest label the maker currently produces.
What do I need to fit it to my car?
This is a side-mount seat: it hangs between side brackets, the motorsport-style stack with fine height and angle control. You will need the car-specific frame, and a sliding runner if you want fore-and-aft adjustment. Our guide on base mount versus side mount walks through the whole stack, and tell us your car and we will quote the full kit.
Does it work with harnesses and a HANS device?
The shell takes 4 point compatible and 6 point compatible. If you are planning the full seat, harness, and HANS setup, tell us the car and we will spec it end to end.
How do I know it will feel right, not just fit on paper?
Fair question, because makers publish widths and weights, never feel, and two seats with identical numbers can feel nothing alike in the car. We keep the ranges on display in the Nottingham showroom, you are welcome to come and sit in them, and if you cannot get to us, call and describe your build, as the team sit in these seats every day. Our head support measurements guide shows the kind of real-world data we collect.
