Corbeau Racing Seats (Best Return Policy Around)

I bought a pair of Corbeau racing seats just over 3 years ago,
Not only did they look good and feel great they totally changed the dynamics of the car in the canyons & on the track.
I bought the A4 Wide in suede cause I'm a big guy 6'4 270,
but over the years the seats definitely started to break down a little bit. I'll contribute that to my size and how rough I am with them, but all I wanted to do was send Corbeau an email and ask them how much it would cost me to ship them in for repair. I told Taylor at Corbeau what they were doing and he asked me to send him a video, which I did.
This guy Tyler took one look at this video immediately let me know that they were sending me to brand new seats ,free of charge! all I had to do was pay shipping. the seats were originally warranty for one year so they came out of the warranty By over 2 years and still not a problem. I've tried to return so many items I purchased for my G just to be met with nothing but a stiff nose and a solid NO. I'm super impressed at how Corbeau handled this whole situation and I'm super happy with the brand new seats.

That's awesome, I love to hear stories like that. Corbeau will definitely be who I work with in the future when its time to replace my seats.

Great company. Recaro, and sparco are always willing as well. That's what you get when yu work with the more reputable companies.

Bill this kinda thread is really good to hear! Even one of our sponsor company's won't let you return items even though they weren't made correctly. Ordered new cans from B2Design, they didn't fit as advertised. Took pic and got them to take back the power steering reserve can but they made me pay for shipping. ($20) Then refused to accept the radiator over flow can because they claim it is universal. (wrong size hose) This is the flip side of your experience Bill, one company backs up what they sell and B2 Design isn't worth a damn and they don't care about Driver members.

It's so rare to find vendors actually give a shat about you after you've purchased their product. it's almost like they treat you like your a professional scammer and they're on to you. out of all the companies out there I think by far Stillen is the worst one!
I have a friend of mine who has a stillin rear anti sway bar that cracked, and the guys over there are literally giving him the third degree

That ain't right!

I've had 2 sets of Corbeaus in my old VWs. I actually think they're more comfortable and supportive than most of the Recaro's I've been in.

I'd love a set of the LG1s, but our winters are brutal and I love my heated seats... hence, my signature.

Good to know, I'm a bigger framed guy as well (6'4" 235lbs) I may need to look into those.

P.s.- Looks like their website shows a heated seat option.
