Seats Are Here (updated 01-01-05) - ZX3TUNR - 12-04-2004

Finally got my seats. I know there not a high end brand but there not bad at all. Still look the exact same and feal as my freinds Sparco Tornios. Any way they came with the slider and the crank adjustment. The cranks dont even bother me. Im so used to that style seat I can take the seats from down to up in seconds.

Getting them in the car is another issue. I am taking them to a guy to get brackets made to adapt right to the stock holes. To be quite honest the bars that are on there allready are so very close to fitting allready LOL. SO CLOSE!!!

Any way the main reason I got these instead of the Sparcos is I plan on taking these in next week to get refabricated in two tone leather (black and same color as car) then also get some more padding done on the sides and the upper shoulder area. Its nice having family in the appalstry business. I then also plan on getting the Focus Canada.net logo embroidered on the top. Back seats well be done at a later time.

The only thing wrong with them is what my mom pointed out and that is the stiching. Its not bad but it could use some more to make it better. It dont matter for me thow.

I agree with you.
Maybe you should put your credit card on ice for awhile. ;)

Seats Are Here (updated 01-01-05) - ZX3TUNR - 12-04-2004

lol na these were a cash purchase (paypal)

Seats Are Here (updated 01-01-05) - SVTZX503 - 12-04-2004

Just joking with you Jay. I'm glad you do the cash thing because those credit card get alot of people in trouble.The seats will look great once you redo them in the leather. I can wait to see your car when everything is finished. Tyler also wants new seat for his car.

Where do you work?

Those seats look nice by the way, I think if anybody were to buy them and not have plans to reupolster them, I'd probably sport for the suede.

I work at Staples call center for some American company called Quill Office Supply.

Any way looks like I got to by another set. The puppies took them over..

Very nice Jay..... those will look awesome in your car. Do they tilt also? Pretty decent looking quality also. How's the color match to the interior of your car?

OT - Donna I know what you mean, it's all about financial planning. I always get a kick out of the fact that between my fiancee and I, we 'tend' to be better off then most of our friends (some of them are lawyers) for the fact that we budget our finances and stay away from the credit stuff. Also on a side note, I always find it funny when people actually give me s**t if I mention I would rather save up the cash and buy the purchase straight out then put it on credit.

Whoever invented credit cards was very very very smart. The companies make a total killing off them.

They don't off the consumer if you pay the full balance on the due date. ;) Then you get upto 55 days of free credit and any other air miles or rewards points. Don't worry the credit card companies still get their percentage from the vendors.

hope you don't get into an accident, those are probably not really good quality.

Are they?

I thought most of these seats were "off road only" or "not intended for race use" making me think they will crap out in an accident?

Wondering because that's pretty much the main reason I haven't replaced my seats yet. that and the "good" seats are WAY too much $$
