Seats look nice for wut they are, but they should provide new alcantara upholstery for the rear seats to match or it will look off.

You think there are ten people ready to shell out $5k plus labor on seats? Where?

I will be doing this, albeit with more affordable sparco seats. You'll save a minimum 100lbs switching them out. Remember the OEM seats have airbags in them as well as everything else.

I'm sure these have airbag sensors so that you dont get an airbag light, do the sparco's have those?

No, but I read in one of these threads about a fix so that light doesnt pop up. I'm looking at Black Sparco Torinos eventually. Problem is that you have to custom fab the mounting bracket because Sparco hasnt made any for the 335 yet.

I figure seats, hood, trunk, lightweight battery will shave off atleast 200lbs. I can switch the OEM seats back in for winter. Keep the wrinkles down.
