Has anyone done a rear re-cover to match? I'd be real interested in seeing a full interior setup.

The sliding rails and lever were on the seat. Everything else I made. This was the lowest I could make the brackets and still be able to slide the seat.

I did have power seats before and these seats flip forward so you can still access the rear.

I'm planning on getting the rears to match the fronts as close as possible...

Here is a side by side comparison and the lumbar inside the Arizen seats. The one thing I don't like about these seats is they weigh more than stock. They've gotta weigh at least 10LBS more....

From looking at this picture would I be correct to assume that they will sit slightly higher than stock if they were on the stock rails?

I believe you are correct. Even with the Arizen brackets I bought, they still sit slightly higher than stock, even though they don't feel like it.
