Driving competitively requires a racing seat that lets you stay put. Hard cornering and braking constantly try to make you slide left and right, or forward out of the seat. If you're investing energy into staying put, that's mental and physical resources you can't devote to the most important thing: winning. That's true during street driving, at least the way they sometimes drive on the street. A stock seat simply doesn't have enough lateral support to keep your butt planted or your shoulders in one place so you can make precise inputs to the steering, accelerator or brakes. Cipher racing seats are optimized for "spirited" driving, and are engineered to work properly with 4- or 5-point racing harnesses instead of seatbelts and airbags. Upholstered in high-quality materials these seats also happen to look amazing.

Cipher Automotive® is based in El Monte, CA, in the center of the California car culture and the aftermarket car business. Although a relative newcomer to the accessory market, they have experience in the field an aggregate of over ten years. They manufacture their products, they don't just order them, so their product line is not only made to their rigorous standards for safety and style, they're supremely in tune with what their customers want.

Pretty Nice For The Price
These seats are aesthetically pleasing and comfortable, but a nightmare to assemble. The two halves don't go together easily and watching the instructional online I find it comical that they cut out this portion of the installation then come to with a completed seat. I also had to use a longer bolt to actually even come close to catching the bolt hole fastening the two halves together. The seats also flex a bit when your sitting in them which isn't a huge deal because other aftermarket seats do the same, even my stock seats did this. Overall really nice seats for not a bad price.

Good Seats
The seats are of decent quality, there are a few drawbacks. The good: The leatherette material is quite nice to both the eye, and the touch. The carbon fiber portion looks and feels nice as well. The design looks very good, and the bolsters on the seatback hold me in place much better than the stock ones. The bad: I get a bit nit-picky with the bad. It's not a deal breaker, but it's things I've noticed. The sliders that come with the seats are quite short. They seem to only have about 8-10 inches of travel. At its furthest position from the steering wheel, my legs are still bent pretty high. (I'm 5'10".) The seatbacks seem to flex quite a bit, (2-3 inches of travel w/ no mechanical failure, just flex) Would NOT buy for racing purposes. The seat bottom also could of been given a bit more padding in the thighs, to support the legs a bit better, (feels like a flat seat. The thigh bolsters feel lower than they should be.) But that may only be my personal preference. But no major complaints. Overall worth the money.

Cipher Seats
Got my seats the other day and they are great! These seats are very comfy and have great support on the bolsters. Very high quality for the price. CARiD took very good care of me the whole way. The install is a little tricky but but if you take your time it can be done.

There is definitely a learning curve to ordering and installing however I'm proud to say I accomplished it. Very, very comfortable seats, and flawless customer service.

Fit amazing in my 81 280zx. Had to do custom brackets due to the car. The cloth is very nice looking. Still rear dark and hasn't sun faded even with no tint of my car. Now have had the seats in for over a year and still looking very good. Since I daily drive the car the driver seat gets lots of wear and tear but the seams haven't even starting coming apart.

Was nervous about ordering the seats but the quality is really good. Now what I did not know is the seats already come with a 4 point harness. Everything came except the brackets which are separate but some of my hardware fell out of the box somewhere being shipped.

OK Seats Not the Best
Cipher Auto® CPA2009RS-PSDBK - CPA2009RS Series Reclinable Steel Tubular Frame Racing Seats, Black Suede with Fabric
Less than a year of owning these the "suede" insert faded to an ugly purple looking color even with the car parked daily in the garage, the recliner portion gets really wobbly and loose. I wouldn't trust these on the street let alone a race track. I tried doing a warranty claim since they have "lifetime" warranty on them but apparently not on the fabric or the recliner, so maybe their logo on the seats is the only thing covered under this "lifetime" warranty. Go buy something else like Corbeau seats instead.

Replaced OEM 1998 corvette seats with these CPA2009RS from Cipher. Seats shipped and arrived quickly, they were packaged well and look/feel like quality seats. Everything was assembled except for the bottom slider bracket which took about 3 min to attach. (my 7yr old daughter helped. Very easy to install). Overall, I am very pleased with these seats and CARiD for their fast shipping and trouble-free buying experience. Thank you guys!
