I have 6le seats, which there are a few threads on (recaro knockoffs, essentially).

Id definitely consider rsx seats or s2k seats too (more common, but more dd friendly)

I run Kirkey pro drags (417) in my Fox. Wouldn't want them or poly seats in a DD. But then again, I wouldn't buy poly seats for anything.

It's been a while but I'm thinking something like $1200. That included the custom leather, SS stitching, seat belt guides, more padding in the bolsters, brackets and shipping.

Well they said it was the factory GM leather, but yea you are right...the quality looks much better than the stock stuff.

There are two knocks i have against them (specifically): 1) seatbelt holder, ive tried a couple crap temporary setups, but im gonna need to end up sewing on the leather straps I have, or mounting the factory ones on like mark (@6le) did. 2) and this is the real one to consider, they have no quick release/lean/whatever. I dont have people in my back seats a lot, but luckily when i do its always a friends girlfriend, cause you have to slide the seat forward, and leaning it takes forever, so it kind of becomes a contortion act.

That aside, i love them. They hug really tight without being annoying/uncomfortable. Made a big difference when turning (and shifting) compared to my stockers, which were 100%, but, well you know. The quality of the material is great, and the price really cant be beat.
