Quick question... Why didn't you do the CAMARO/Flags logo on the fronts (instead of the SS) as well? Or vice-versa...

looks pretty nice! I just don't understand why all you guys are more impressed with the seat belt holder? Is there some reason why the holders can't be used on aftermarket seats???

I don't think it is as easy as it seems it should be...that's why. I don't have personal experience trying it, but it does not seem like a trivial task to me.

The only problems I can see in mounting the guide on aftermarket seat are having a flat surface in a suitable location and something solid to screw or bolt into.

By the way, very nice seats.

thanks for all the good replies so far! Mark did say the seatbelt involved a lot more time than they thought, it was not as easy at it looks.

I went with the Camaro with the flags on the back because it took up more space I guess. I have candy red SS on my black floor mats, so that is another reason why I went so subtle. But I do think the black logos look amazing. They are kind of like those t-shirts at Express that are black on black. I am not sure if this seatbelt loop was a one time deal, you guys would have to call Mark for that question.

thanks guys! keep up the feedback! and again, the brackets should be here today. That means I should have them installed tonight. mayyyybe.

I'm not sure if I'd care if it was a one-time only deal. They did it for you, and I'd gladly pay to have it done for me (if I get new seats). That is a nice, subtle touch that you can't put a price tag on in my mind. Although I'm sure they put a price tag on it

I can't wait to see the installed pics!

your dam right you can't put a pricetag on the seat belt loops nor the logos...as far as my knowledge, no other aftermarket seat offers the seat belt loop. Trust me, give Mark a call and tell them you seen Michael's (me) seat belt.

Looks great! Are you more happy with these than the others (fiberglass backed ones)? When are you installing the back seat cover?

they are a world of difference. The only minor thing is that when you close the door, it hits the seat a little...I don't think its a big deal considering everything else is perfect. I'm going to try to install the rear seats after the holidays.

Looks like your passenger seat sits about an inch higher too. With a little fabrication you can move the seats in a little. I got mine to sit perfect so it doesn't hit the door or the center console. And it will get annoying real quick if it's touching the door because it will squeak over every bump. I like the customizing you did a lot. Really like the rear logo. The rear seat cover they made looks just like the LT1 rears. Maybe I'll just get a set of those... Oh, and is the SS on the front seats a sticker or is it actually stitched??

For the passenger seat, I'm going to take the spacers out so it sits the same height as the drivers. I'm not sure if I'm going to leave them hitting the door a little, because I really want to avoid custom fabrication, I'm not good with tools, lol. Other than that, I am very very happy. Thanks for the feedback!

btw, what do you think I could do so they wont hit the door?
