I have the same basic cab your base is made out of if you need any dimensions.
That seat is going to be a LOT more comfortable than the plastic one.
Check out the threads in my Sig if you haven't come across them already.

Thanks man, actually i saw your thread over a year ago before i consider all my options your threads were a great help to understand the difference between the wheel types. Your build was nice also. Loved how you recreated the dash.
I'm still on the fence about the seat and the artwork. I like the idea of a of a racing seat, but the problem is there not very comfortable. Also if im planning on sitting in this thing for 2-3 hrs playing NFS shift i want it comfy Ill probably look for a black leather seat, i thought i could pass with a biege seat being the theme is a sports car "out run"
Driving cabs are rare on this form its so weird.
As for the art i have a new concept, ill post that shortly. I've also built a proof of concept with a working prototype.

Check out www.thewayiplay.com if you are into racing sims. There are lot of home built cockpits there, not so many arcade type though. The are rebuilding pedals and gear shifts all day long there.
Your set up is cool. Where did you source seat? What car is it from?

Got it out of a Acura Integra. Im on the hunt for a black one I think i found one:)
yeah at first i was going to build a sim. But then decided not to go that route, Im more arcade type racing NFS shift/GT5/Classic mame/Sega M2.
I tried playing LFS "sim" games and i hate them there too hard. also at one time was look at hooking up X-sim but its kinda overkill and too much can go wrong.

Heres an update. of my staging area. I built a wood frame and attached the seat for a quick test. ( seat not attached)
WIRES GALORE! enjoy
