    wow for a hundred dollars....actually the shipping is more expensive than the seats......I vote for "scary".........pleather seats, with plastic inserts

    is that rating from selling those seats though?.....if so then maybe I'd say yes...

    They do that to get around ebay fees. ebay charges a percent of the selling price not shipping.

    Still a cheap price. It's worth having someone be guinea pig like the ebay tmic's I'd say. If you get them, take them apart though. Make sure you'd trust your life to their build quality.

    good point! stupid me, hadn't even considered that...

    yeah, i was actually interested in them for a friend in AZ with a 93, wasn't even sure if they'd fit, but can't be any worse than what she has now. (unless they're unsafe...)

    seriously dude, it's like buying a no-name race harness from someone "recommended". you're putting your life (er, hers) into his hands.

    get some leather evo seats and have em embroidered ;)

    id be worried about quality and comfort more than anything.

    I agree. I would never buy a seat without being able to sit in it and test the feel first. Though for the $100 Buy It Now price, if it wasn't comfortable, you could try to sell it and make your money back pretty easily.

    Also, I hate leather, especially in the Summer when it gets hot and you are wearing shorts and your skin just sticks to it. I hate the smell. I just plain hate leather.

    actually i purchased some seats from that guy for my civic when i was in high shcool. the seats were comfy. althought they seamed to really lean back when you pressed against them. they were thin and felt cheep. it also took like 2 months to ship them because they were on backorder. he did let me know right away and he threw in some floor mats. oh yea, one seat squeeked all when i had a passanger.

    They look sexy, but like everyone else said, I'd be careful.
