Ok, so have had a week off work to try and get as much done to the car as poss (rained quite a bit!  :angry: ).. gonna post whats been going on.

Seats arrived....





Heres one next to my old Drivers side heated Recaro





it had to go, it was fooked and when the heat was on it smelt bad  :laugh:

Carpets aren't in yet but wanted to see how at least one of them was like fitted.  was a pain to get them setup right with the new brackets...  on the shortest setup i think the seats are still too high, i'm pretty tall and with these in, my head only just clears the roof!.. may have to get something welded in at a later date, i'll post a pick of one fitted later as i havent got one.

(more coming very shortly)

It's the truth, i think it's also because i understand the history and i've seen it develop from a smashed wreck to pure awesomeness!!  :cool:
