ROFL yeah.....

Well they came with the car which is good but the brackets are different, as described in my other post.

I just gutted the interior because I was bored and excited, OCD kicked in and I had to clean the shit out of it lol.


How much do you think I could sell them for???

- Fri Feb 08, 2013 8:26 pm #325949 probably $20 for both.

most people wouldn't waste their time to swap out their seats with ripped ones.. unless they are BOSSES at reupholstering seats.

Holly, I just went through your whole build thread....
I loved it from start to finish.

You've built quite an amazing machine :thumb:


I've been looking at the parts you've got installed prior to viewing the thread and it makes me want them even more lol.


I'll be sure to update as often as possible.

I remember when I had my MR2 3SGTE and need to upholster both seats. I purchased some custom leather and dropped it off at the factory (leather place that I've purchased the custom leather) and they added new foam and made sure it is to the same shape it is from the factory.

So if foam is missing, it shouldn't be a problem. The only thing is... do you want to spend that much to upholstery old seat vs racing seats. Price is pretty much the same. :D

Exactly :)

I'd much rather get a fresh set of Bride's and drop them in. :D

What style Brides are you thinking of getting?
