The Cobra Monaco Sport Narrow, a fixed back bucket cut for a 28 to 32 inch waist. Part number COBMNSN-S.
Narrow is a real specification, not a smaller size label
Most bucket seats are cut for an average adult male frame, and a driver outside that ends up either swimming in the seat or perched on top of the bolsters. Neither holds you.
This shell is genuinely narrower through the hips and sides. It suits smaller drivers, many women, and juniors moving up from karting, and it is also the answer in a narrow cabin where a standard shell fouls the door card or the tunnel.
Measure your waist rather than working from a clothing size, and measure the gap in the car between the door card and the centre console at hip height. Send us both figures and we will tell you honestly whether narrow is right.
The rest of the specification
Road and Track approved rather than FIA homologated, so it suits track days and fast road use rather than scrutineered competition. Steel frame, fixed back, spacer fabric trim. Base mounted or side mounted. Slots for a 4 or 6 point harness. 11.4kg, which is the honest cost of the steel plating.
If you need FIA approval at this width, tell us and we will check what the range offers.
Seat only. Ask us about frames and mounts.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Customer Question: Fitting Our MX-5 Side Mounts To A Cobra Monaco Pro, and Cobra Monaco 40th Edition Bucket Seats with Custom Tartan Trim. Some of that comes straight from real customer questions, so you are reading answers other buyers actually needed.
Will I fit in this seat?
The maker sizes this seat for drivers under 6ft in height with a 28in to 32in 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 this seat FIA approved?
No, this is a road and track day seat rather than a homologated competition seat. For events that require an FIA seat, look at the FIA-approved shells in the range, and ask us if you are unsure what your series needs.
What do I need to fit it to my car?
This seat takes both base and side mounting, so the fitting stack depends on which route you pick for your car. 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.
