Default [PICS]Pratt & Miller C6RS seats, now at Katech

We now have a solution for 2LZ and 3LZ Z06 owners who want a seat upgrade for their Street Attack Z06. These retain the factory airbag. The Pratt & Miller C6RS seats will be available for any of our complete vehicle packages. Here are some photos from today's newest arrival. I'll get more once they are in the car.

Are the seats only available with the street attack package or are they available by themselves ?

Pratt & Miller is selling them by themselves so you can go direct on that. We will be offering them as an option in our Street Attack package.

Here is how I think mine would look. The darker sections being alcantara.

No. These are built for comfort. They can recline, have full power controls, airbags and everything. If you want a lighter seat (and have a 1LZ) we would use the Caravaggio Race or GT seat.

They are the best most comfortable street seats I have ever been in.

...and in my case I supplied donor seats from a regular C6 so these have passenger side power and power lumbar which the stock seats don't.

Butt.....they need a pass-through in the seat bottom for 5/6 point harness anti-sub straps.

They can't do an anti-sub pass-through because of all the power and heat stuff in the seat. We're going to run a 6-point with the anti-sub around the front of the seat on mine.

Yes, the split sub belt should work well with the design of the leading edge of the seat bottom.

Yeah, and besides, it's much easier to get a loan to send your kids to college than to send your Corvette to Katech. What do banks know anyway...

Do these seats keep the OEM heated element? If so, how does the heated element fit around the raised/padded section at the front of the squab? Do you have to modify or cut the heated element?

They retain the heating element, but we do not manufacture the seats. I don't know how they look on the inside.
