I really want a pair of brides up front. I'll probably end up settling for something a little less though. I just want something that hugs me, I'm tired of feeling like I'm on a park bench.

Even some of the Tenzos look half decent, but I couldn't buy a seat without sitting in it first. When I sat in the Zeta II I knew I wanted them.

Ive thought about installing aftermarket seats as well, but the cons still outweigh the pros.. BUT if I did, this would prob be the only seat id use.

Recaro style Topline

http://www.recaro.com/index.php?id=5111&L=2.

at least I can retain heated seats, and its leather.. I would love to run Brides, but the only model they make for larger drivers is a non-reclineable bucket. FTL, damn tiny japanese ppl!

anyone have more pictures of the seats? i'm pretty bored with the car and i wanted to get 2 front seats. like something that can still bolt up orginal seatbelt harness...

I assume we can use a 350z tracks to bolt up. and the seats all bolt up to the tracks? SO we dont need a specfic track to seat type of thing?

I bought a Z seat and never installed it.

It's mint lol

I'll probably put it in the Z because it's in far better shape and just buy a recaro or bride. Not like they lose resale value.

I was looking into this thread and I realized, red leather bride's wouldn't look too bad with my black leather rear seats. I just think if I had suede seats in the front and leather in the back it would look a bit tacky. Although, I didn't want to lose my electric features lol (raising, lowering, back/forth) my stock seat can go pretty damn high!

I also didn't want to compromise the "luxury" look of the car so I'm stuck lol. My front seats are torn, and I don't wanna pay a lot to get my stock seats fixed when I could just get a nice pair of brides.

Getting your stock seats fixed would be a LOT cheaper than a set of bride seats.

As for the suede and leather, you just need to add some other suede parts in the back, etc.
