Yeah I like them. they are a little heavy since they are elctric but the heated seats in the winter will make up for that :D

I wanted something other than the normal black. Red seemed like it would pop and still look good on a blue car. I've seen some haters on the idea, but I like it :)

Gonna go with red seats, panels, and black carpet.

Perfect, that should probably happen, Heated seats can be a big draw.

I was gonna go to the place you and Adam suggested but he was busy the day I wanted to go.

So I went to this guy on Foster that has been recommended to me a few times. $35 for a front end alignment and will re-align it for free if I ever lower or raise it...

Collecting the red interior parts is coming along nicely. Only a few more things to go and the transformation will begin :D
