got some new seats in today. what do people think?
they are alot lower down than the standard ones as they're on the standard runners.

I like that, suits the colour scheme very well,
Were the seats a direct fit?

no, fully custom installation.
a friend did them for me for £40. used the old runners with the new seats- no sub frames. so thats how they are quite low down
i'l get some pics of how they have been put in.

Suits the colour scheme but not to my taste.

I got a bargain once, that would have been ideal for trimming, I bought a Cobra Sidewinder for £80 and they retail for £300, it had been a display model, and faded.
Never used it and sold it for £100

How about side airbags? Here in Finland one cannot change front seats because it´s not allowed to "downgrade" oem safety equipment.
Seats with side airbags it a whole new story, but I guess those are too expensive so nobody really does that.
Btw. Your interior looks alot better that way!
