Custom Seats.

What is everyones prefrence in custom front seats? Im looking for some jap seats since this guy was gonna charge me $180 for front and back green SLX cloth seats. Im thinking of some S13 Silvia seats, but they look a bit big for a Gemini. I have seen a few custom seats in Geminis, so I know it is fairly easy to do with the articles in the workshop. So yeah, what does everyone think looks good and if anyone had any prices that would be great.

Cheers,
Pavlos.

I had '89 Integra seats in my gemi, came with them installed. Looked pretty good, fit well and have good support. I'm also looking into new seats at the mo. CRX ones look good, or you can pick up the fish-net headrest recaro's pretty damn cheep. A mate also told me that GT starlet seats are nice, so i'm gonna look into that.

Cheers Pav, i was gonna ask the same question but now i dont have to. I think the Celica seats are nice, cos they are nice and moulded, also are their any nice seats that fit straight into the gemi mounts?

Im pretty sure that you have to modify the seat rails on the Jap seats to Gemini rails and then bolt them up to the mounts.

just use a rota for a seat and jump up and down on it like RX_GEM, u can find them sitting on the side of the road not running.

GTi seats are also recaros. They look pretty good and go really well with a harness.
