Default Seats from Vin Diesel's Mazda

Does anyone know where you can get the same style seats that where in his car from the Fast and the Furious. The seats if you don't remember had the seat cushions that you could flip up. He had his nos system controls under it. If anyone knows where you can get them please let me know. Thanks

Let me go out on a major limb and comment that those seats were a custom job done by a shop. Recaro or Corbeau make seats to support drivers, not nitrous bottles.

In reality, that car does not have a nitrous system. The flip-up etc. was a movie prop.

Thanks for the responses, I just loved the look of them and didn't know whether they were made by an aftermarket company or not. Oh well, maybe I can have someone make seats like them.

Just contact the guys that make the Ferrari seats (Corzione or something with a C in it). They make custom leather seats, but the company name escapes me at the moment

The customization of Ferrari vehicles is performed by "Carrozzeria Scaglietti" if that's the company you're referring to.
You can even order silver door sills with your name on them from those guys.
I don't know who makes the seats in the first place though...

FYI - the challenge seats are made by OMP for Ferrari with custom skins on them.

Exactly right, and give bad credit where it's due as well, that car is a POS...sorry, it's junk.
