Well.
After spending four full days on seats that will never ever work in my car, I realized I spent four days vacuuming my car out. So there's that... after spending a C on the seats; I drew up some new rails, then spent 175 bucks on the materials - metal/nuts&bolts/M1, assembled them - and they were beautiful... fit perfectly, and raised the seats exactly 1 9/16"s clearing console perfectly. Those seats were not meant to be. Now saving money to get some kit or something to refinish my stocks.

Then I went back to the yard and grabbed a brakelight switch - free - 'cuz I'm there alot... and because the one I ordered with Amazon - used my Prime delivery as well - followed up with an email saying two more weeks delivery time...

Then I went back again, and grabbed an oe coffee cup holder; a switch for the vert roof, and together they cost me fifteen bucks...

OH YEAH!!!! It's so freakin hot out, my new Cobra lights came apart 'cuz the 'whatever' they used to seal them together, melted and presto! lenses off the housings... BUT, I showed it's ass. I JB Welded the shit out of the both of them... even bought a bunch of small c-clamps and just gonna let it sit for the rest of today as well... 40 hours of curing oughtta settle the argument :D

I'm curious to know how much a leather seat repair costs, I am looking at a gt roller with a tear on the drivers seat.
The driver's seat is far worse than the passenger seat. I don't believe that anyone has ever sat in the rear seat. It is like showroom new. Her are photos of the driver's seat. The price to recondition both front leather seats is $450.

Those seats are in great shape for the age
