Re: seat ideas

The leather setup that dayle sells looks amazing, I admit. There is a problem there. They're so damned expensive! If your looking to go down that road and just want to make your stock seats less ugly, I say go to a local upholstry guy and have him give you a quote.

Now if you want a lighter car and possibly more comfortable, and better looking (in my opinion) seats and don't mind some work, I say go with either the Chinese ones or the STi seats.. The only problem is that the STi seats are expensive as crap on eBay so if your going to go shopping for then, check for used ones on the STi forums. Some of them are stingy with their seats and try to milk as much cash as possible but I'd start with a low offer, wait till they're in need of cash and offer again.

Just as well, you may be able to find some at a local junkyard even..
