Default Need Pics of 6LE Seats Installed

Obviously the ones on the website show one set in, but I'd really like to see a few more sets in, as well as know how you guys mounted them. What rails are included with them (replacement rails, adapters that bolt to stock rails, or will I have to fab something)? My driver's seat is power, is it easily adaptable to these seats or will I be ditching it (doesn't matter to me one way or the other as long as I can slide the seat front to back and adjust the lean angle of the seat.

Just ordered RedlineGoods shift boot, e-brake boot, and armrest cover in charcoal with red stitching. I've got a little coin and it's either going towards a baby stealth cam, or seats. I think some 6LE seats with red stitching would really bring the interior up a big step and tie into my black with red accents theme I have going.

I have the redline console cover and it matches the seats pretty darn well...

Half my people have used the write up on my forums to mount them to stock rails, the other half has bought the adapter brackets (that allow you to use the sliders that come with the seats). I don't sell the brackets, I just recommend the company (same one that Arizen used I am told), www.wedgeengineering.com

For installed pics I know a few people but just remember their names right now, not screen names. Hawk's Third Gen bought a set a liked them though, maybe they have pics...

From what I've seen in person not much. The real leather is a little softer but the grain all looks the same...

That's right, I totally always forget to tell people that. The seats in my rail write-up are old school MRC seats, and despite what people think, they are different seats (IMHO ours are made MUCH better)...
