Holy Moo Moo, that is awesome right there. How much did it cost for the seats?
Thats just a beautiful How To. Very well documented with pictures and text. Excellent, excellent work. Just WOW.

Thanks, I like it alot. I waited too long and missed out on two sets of GXP seats from Ed Morad for cheaper. I ended up paying $377 for the complete front and rear set with less than 5500 miles on the car in perfect condition. Shipping is what gets you on stuff like this though, so look local first and save money. More than I wanted, but tired of waiting as I wanted to do this 2 years ago. Love the mod. Much more supportive and comfortable.

Was the $377 including shipping? If so, thats still not horrible and if you could get it cheaper than that, I may be all over this as soon as I can.

Through others it would have been, but in this case no $377 was seats only. Shipping was another $100-150. I've seen them cheaper and more expensive multiple sets throughout the country still available if you search the yards.

Okay, cool. Now for my next question for ya and I think I'll be done. Would you have any objection to this being made into a document that can be down loaded and a copy of this posted in our How To section?

Not at all. Feel free to edit it as needed, omit some of the pics if you want, etc. I have no objections to sharing any info I have on this site unless otherwise specified, which I don't see happening. Thanks for asking. Let me know if you need any pics or info on anything else as the car is just sitting in the garage til spring.

ME LIKEY!!!

I really want to do this now.

Has anyone else noticed that some of the drivers seats have an uncomfortable spot near the base of the back? I have to shift positions numerous times while driving, and am wondering if anyone else has this problem...

Wow - great work and even better outcome, Jason! That is sick - and something I will definitely be doing in my next GP project. Thanks for documenting this so well!
