I just got this car and I want to make sure if these seats are custom. Or if you could get it like this as an option. I have never seen this before. But I just wanted to make sure before I stick my foot in my mouth.

Seats are custom. Never have seen OEM "suede" TA seat inserts.

I see that it's a fourth-gen 'bird. Yep, headrests are definitely custom. The '99 30th Anniv. and '02 CETA were the only two fourth-gen 'birds that I know of that came with embroidered headrests.

I love the embroidery, but just not the purple so much. It's not so bad that I am going to spend the time or money on it though. I have other things to buy. Like new headers and a cam.
