Default new seats in my Z

in 09 i started to install seats from a dodge neon srt4 in my camaro. those are the same as in the viper, and are among the best seats i tried.

first when i started installing them i was started to think that this would never work, but few weeks ago when i started working on my car agen i finished the install,

the color is spot on to the gray color of the interior and they are insanely comfy. next step is to put some fabric that matches the seats on the doorpanel, or just get a nicer colored doorpanel ,




i used one of the electric motors from the orginal bracket to move the seat forward/backward

thanks all, i am really happy how they turned out,

i had a srt4 and often said that the seats where the only good thing about them.

in this car they feel even better. they lay much more back than they did in the srt4 and the back really hugs you. all of the back touches my back if anyone can understand what i mean.

i got a little bit of both fabrics, the lather and cloth from the backseats of the car the seats came from, i doubt that it is enough leather for both panels, so i am thinking about trying the black cloth on the part that has gray cloth, jey or nei??

^THIS.

Can you explain the install, what you did, how much the seats cost, etc?

where did you get the seats, and whats the going price for the pair? Does the seat anywhere say anything Dodge related, such as the headrests?
