Another try of the seats (sitting high because I just placed it on top of the oem seat reclined)... I'm still debating if I like the color match of the tan seats on the williow interior....

With lights on, it matches well.

Swap update

Hey ConradoR
Sounds lilke you are getting ready to do your LS swap....Cool.
I'm at the tail end of my install......been waiting on my harness....lots of delays.
Guy I am using seems like he will do a good job, but he is so busy with other projects I seem to keep getting delayed.

You have any thoughts on what you are doing for a harness?
If I have to go with another harness builder, maybe we could get them both done by the same guy.

Anyway.....car looks great. I'm Jealous of the Wheels.....very nice. Tail lights look great too....I may try that too...How much did they run you $$?

Hey Hybrid.

Thanks, yeah I'm looking forward to it, wish I had finished it already, but waiting for the right moment...Hate to see all of the parts sitting there waiting though!

Anways, for harness, if I were you I would go with PSI Conversions up in the NE. If you were in the Southeast (within driving distance of West Florida), I would use Current Performance.

PSI is the best price though, and it's a complete replacement builit with GM connectors.

Seats finally installed.
Feel great! Great support during sharp turns, yet still comfortable.
Will get some good usage out of it at Palm Beach International Raceway this weekend!
