How can you widen them? You have the door panel and center console in the way. The only thing I can think of is to install 99-04 mustang gt seats in your car. They don't have as much support like the Cobra seats do.

A lot of the bigger guys go gt500 due to it being way more comfortable. IMO if your over 6'1 a terminator can be less fun to drive. No saying no one that big doesn't own them ,just what I've seen in the past.

I have a 00 GT and a cobra and i must agree with whats said above. The GT has much more room all around compared to the cobra seats for some reason. This hasnt stopped me from loving my terminator and enjoying it, i just drive my GT daily

Good luck with your search, Have you considered reclineable bucket seats

that's what I have been thinking about getting some racing seats just not sure what to get. my stock seats are so mint that they are hard to get rid of though.

I put a pair of Mach 1 seats in my Cobra. They are much roomier than the Cobra seats but give you less support in turns. And the seat bottom is much flatter giving a lot more room too. But I was always a big fan of the Mach 1 seats appearance. And they have all the same electrical connections as the Cobra and plug right in.
