The Mirco RTS-2 in velour, 349. Fibreglass, fixed back, side mount, FIA 8855-1999, four or six point harness compatible, HANS friendly, in 32 to 36 or 36 to 40 inch waist sizing, for drivers over or under six feet. Thirty-one sold from this page.
The one most people buy
Thirty-one is more than any other single Mirco listing bar its 3D twin. The reason is that the RTS-2 covers more drivers than anything else at the price: two widths, no height note, homologated, and 349 in velour. It is the answer when someone asks which Mirco to get and does not have a strong reason to pick another.
Colours
Black, or black with green, blue, grey or red, and Mirco quote over 250 colour options beyond those, so ask. The shell in black, blue, grey, orange, red, white or yellow. Personal name embroidery available. Anything beyond black is made to order; nine photographs on the listing show the standard seat.
Against the 3D version
The RTS-2 in 3D SpaceTech is 334, fifteen less, and the mesh runs cooler. Velour is softer and warmer. Same shell either way.
Belts, FIA, fitting
Four or six point, HANS friendly; six point with a head and neck restraint. FIA 8855-1999, expiry on the label. Side mount, so side mounts and a frame for the car are separate. Tell us the car and your size.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: The Mirco RTS-2 Stealth Edition, Fresh Through Our Showroom, and Audi TT Mk1 with Mirco RTS-2 Seats, A Track-Ready Build. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Is the RTS the roomy one?
Yes, the RTS has the largest internal feel of the Mirco range, which matches its measurements and our showroom experience. If you have found other shells pinch at the hips, start here.
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 or 36in to 40in 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.
