More photos of the seats please!

Yes, Katzkins look better, they look better than other OEM leather.

I like the idea of this because its cheap, easily reversible and re-sellable.

If it gets damaged, oh well. If I damaged Katzkins, I'd go crazy.

Yeah they look a little baggy. I like the look just not the fit.

Clazzio Airbag testing for the seat mounted airbag. I've been selling these since 2007 or so and their product is outstanding.

I quite like it, for the price of pre ordering them i might do it...
With red stitching of course. :D

No they take about 1-2 hours to install, and are very tight fitting. The looseness you see in this photo is from concave areas not form fitted yet. With use they become much more neat in fit. I've had them now for a few days and all seats fit very nicely without bubbles or wrinkles. It's in the shop right now getting some mods on the outside but I'll have updated pics after SEMA.

By taking a new wire set all the way from the dome light to each door, painfully... :) BTW: you need a lamp assembly from a Subaru BRZ as FRS just as a lens and no bulb holder or socket.

And did you swap out the lights where the speedometer and tachometer are? or did you add additional lights there? it looks really bright in that area!
No, they are stock, but the camera exposure overexposed there since it is much brighter there than it is on the console and foot wells.

Quote:

Also is the "single red led" that's lighting the center console area coming from the dome light housing?
yes, I drilled a hole in the dome lamp housing, and carefully ran another set of wires from the parking lamp triggered circuit, and carefully pointed a single LED from the pin hole, aiming at the forward part of the center console.

Who's to say I won't have a Manual sooner or later too :) I've owned 7 AE86s in my life, so I am assuming there will be many more FRS to come in the decades.

They fit a lot better now that it's been on there for a few days. :) I'll update the pics soon after SEMA.

Both sets look best when installed by a professional with a steamer. I think the fit of this particular car could easily be improved by someone with a bit of know-how.

Again, it was installed at Claszzio and this was taken moments after the install. They look a lot better in fit now that its been a few days and seats settled.

Looks like it is common for Clazzios to start off looking baggy, but they form after a couple days. I'm interested in picking these up. Clazzio also made covers for S2000s which look really nice, and s2000 seats have just as many curves as ours.
