Brides!! I wonder if there is a airbag in the seat, because then if i get brides my srs light will be on and that wouldn't be kosher

Bride sells an airbag disabler for their seats. Basically a resistor you plug into the stock seat airbag wiring, that tricks the car into thinking the airbags are present. TRD seats come with the same thing.

And speaking of, my Stradia II seat and TRD rails should be here in about a week! I'm so excited, I'm freakin' out!!!

Airbags are on the seats? How do the katskins seat covers work with the airbags?

The FR-S/BRZ seats are one of few OEM seats I would not want to change out. If you're not satisfied with the FR-S's material, you'd be much better off just getting a BRZ Premium. The $1,100 difference is probably less than you'd pay to change the seats in the FR-S, and you pick up HID's and navigation. Win!

Probably the same way a lot of seat covers work with them: specially stitched panels that allow deployment of side airbags. I haven't checked Katskins specifically, but I know that's how a lot of Japanese brands work (including the SARD seat covers).
