Help me deceid! PRP or RZR Seats for year round use

nateknight · #1 (**permalink**) 05-01-2012, 01:42 PM

OK here is the deal, I have to have a more comfortable seat in my Teryx. I am in West Virginia and ride in rain and snow and need a seat to handle any weather condition that there is. I have heard that suspension seats will soak water up like a sponge if left out in the rain all day and I just can not have that. It will sit outside a lot during hunting season. So RZR seats are an option that would be weather proof but I know they are not close to being a suspension seat. Is there a seat that isnt affected by the elements enough to worry about and still be a comfy ride. I am ready to buy so please help!

I all depends on material used with the suspension seats they can be very weather proof and they do make seat covers for added protection when your not riding in it.

For what it is worth, my twisted stitch seats put up with alot of abuse. I power wash the shit out of my car and the seats hold up perfect. No issues at all.

x2 for Twisted Stitch. Give them a call and ask for Leo or call Black Rhino and Steven or Jason will take care of you.

As long as you stay away from tweed when you pick your seats out you will be fine.

We carry prp seats and can make you a great deal. Feel free to give us a ring if you have any questions.

i had the prp highbacks, they wasnt the tweed seats, they had the different cover. They were comfortable but they did hold water if gotten wet, but it seems they dried out pretty fast though. One thing i didnt like was if the seat got full of water it was there, no where for it to drain to

I have the PRP seat with the vinyl and they get power washed and hold up fine.

Seems like a matter of money. You can get Rzr seats for 100$ or prp seats for several 100$

I would love to have suspension seats, there just not in the budget. I have however put a used set of razor seats in, they make a world of difference.

I also have twisted stitch seats and love them. I live in Washington state, so lots of rain and mud. I also have heaters in the front seats, very nice for those cold wet days...

What advantages do the RZR seats have over the factory Kawi seats? They look to be pretty similar to me.

I have an 08 LE for reference.

They look better and I think they are more comfortable. I'm sure they don't compare to prp but way cheaper

Easiest way is go sit in a RZR. Taller, not as hard...form around the back a little more....

I guess I need to get more seat time in my Teryx - I have ridden shotgun in a rzr more than I have been in the Teryx (neither of wich is terribly much)

How easy do they swap in?

My riding buddy has a RZR and is looking to upgrade his seats - I can probably grab his stockers cheap.
