They look pretty sleek, most importantly though, how do they feel? Good to take on raodtrips with or more so for the strip.

I use the stock seat belts however they do hang right about on your neck.

I really like the way they look and fell. it really hugs you in the seat. great feel.
not super soft but capable of making road trips... atleast i would, but then again i would drive across the us with a cutout open as well

ow yeah..
they weigh 29lbs each with brackets on them.
i saved 27 lbs over stock seats.

Those are the ones with the fiberglass backing, correct? I saw those and thought the price looked pretty attractive. So the comfort isn't unheard of even with the fiberglass backs eh?
