Well I have katskinz in my FR-S and I have never been shocked, did't even know that was an issue. So that may answer your question.

leather seat

regarding that leather seat - how much does it cost and where did u go to get it done.

secondly - i have a standard gt 86 with no leather seat - would replacing my genuine non leather seat with after market leather seat be the right choicce?

opinions please

No going through Guerilla Racing and getting some Clazzio leather seat covers is your best bet.

I paid a local guy to do it and he obviously did a rush job. The lower drivers seat it looks like he bent the rails the hog rings clip to. If you are mechanically inclined I suggest doing it yourself. Just remember the steps it takes to remove. Dont forget to open the doors before disconnecting the battery
