those seats look great. you might be able to tie them in a little better with some other red stitched accents here and there. for example, i just added this shift boot... getting it to fit just right is a work in progress.

Some custom floor mats, door panels , wrapped steering wheel and shift boot will help tie in the theme more.

Good start with the seats.

On mine I had to buy 1" long bolts/nuts for the seat rails. The passenger side was easy to install with theh bracket attached. The drivers side is a PITA. Mount the bracket first to the car then attach the seat to the bracket and install bolts.

i've been throwing them around a little and i'm really liking them. very comfortable (they need just a slight bit more lumbar support for me) and they hold you in position very well. definitely an upgrade over stock Trans Am seats. just know that there is no quick release to tilt the seat forward, as these are racing seats, so, use of the back seats is more difficult. not a problem for me but, just to let you know...

I have a write-up on my forums of how I added some lumbar on mine as well, I feel you there...

Also, for those who WANT the quick release, just order our BASIC seats. We get those from MRC (and our price is the same as it is on MRC so buy from us, lol!)
