The drivers seat is mounted, just not sure the fixed passenger seat idea can "work". I can reshape the bottom and backrest to match but the shoulder support and headrest protrude.
The Audi dash shape will match the headrest and the door panels are reshaped as well. Two seats will have symetry but not at the dash. They will reduce the need for back padding if any but then it will look less "production". This is why I removed the cage and opted for the hidden Engman reinforcements. Making harnesses look "factory" is also a detail challenge... Attached image(s) |

Hey Felix! Good to see continued progress on Neo.
Everyone has had great input and as a whole it sounds like we would like to see you keep the built in seat for retro-sake but improve on the idea for passenger secure seating sake. I propose the following.... The GT3 seat looks fine on its own but needs a little something to help tie it in with the rest of that back rest. How about building up the passengers seat to mimic the lower half of the GT3 seat? This would tie it all together and provide the passenger with a little extra side bolstering while also retaining the original built in passenger seat look? What do you think of this?
