Sparco Torino R500 Reclining Seat, Black Fabric

The Sparco Torino R500 reclining bucket seat in black fabric combines enveloping lateral support with an adjustable seat back to customize your driving position. This evolution of the Torino is designed for drivers looking for a racing seat for their vehicle or for track days that do not require an FIA-approved seat.

Its tubular steel frame is trimmed with 3D fabric and foam padding derived from technologies used in production car seats. Handles accessible from both sides make it easy to adjust the backrest angle.

Its wraparound shape provides body support without side headrests. The Torino R500 can be used with a factory seat belt or a compatible harness, provided that the mounting and anchoring requirements for the assembly are met.

Mounting and Compatibility with Your Vehicle

Before ordering, check for clearance around the shoulders, door trims, and the transmission tunnel. Also verify the driving height achieved with the selected brackets, as well as the space required for the seatback to recline.

The belt or harness and their anchor points must be compatible with the installation. This seat is not FIA-approved and is not suitable for events requiring such approval. Its installation for on-road use must comply with the applicable vehicle requirements.
