Question Cost of upgraded FRS

I was wondering what an estimated cost of a FRS 6MT with all leather heated seats, good HID and DRL kit

Sounds like a BRZ limited is the most cost effective choice for these specs.

Let's see... A company here locally would convert/install heated seats in the S2000 for $250-400, considering the FRS already has slots in the fuse box for heated seats the installer should have an easy go with it.

The FRS already has DRL's.

You can do the HID conversion for $300 with retrofit source or wait until someone crashes their BRZ and buy the headlights from them!

I think you can you have heated seats and HID's for under $1k pretty darn easily.

I was going to do the HID conversion until I drove my FRS at night and was really impressed the quality, light output and color of the halogen projectors and I decided they were just fine.


....and none of that matters now.. enjoy your BRZ!

Prices sound about right for that stuff but getting leather seats would be a bit more expensive. That is for re-wrapping the seats or buying different ones with leather, Katskinz or whatever the company is would be a cheaper option but look nowhere near as good IMO.

My car is at the port so I'm guessing it will be at the dealership by next weekend.

Good point but the BRZ leather seats aren't completely leather are they? Isn't the seat and back still alcantara?
