Just installed my seat covers

These are Clazzio seat covers, perforated gray leather centres and black vinyl sides. Took me about 2-3 hours to install, and my hands are quite sore now. They fit reasonably well, and can probably be smoothed out a bit more, but I will have to do that later after I give my hands and arms a rest.

Pictures didn't turn out that great, will have to get some in the sunlight.





Here you can see how well the gray stitching on the seats match the stitching on the centre console:


And how it matches the instrument panel:

Hey gj, have you tried the magic seats to make sure they still work like they did before? Also where did you get they from and for how much? I was thinking about getting either the black suade insert or the black perf with maybe blue stitch to match my BSP color or black stick. Looks great.

The magic seats still work but they don't have the fluid action like before. The added thickness of the material adds some friction. Not too bad though. I drove to my sister's place for dinner tonight, and the feel is a bit different. There seems to be more "plushness" to the seats. Whether this will appeal to you depends on how much you like the current seat's firmness.

I purchased my seat covers from Zeta Products. Unfortunately, they didn't have this colour combination in stock, so it was a custom order. Took about 2 months to get it from Japan.

They are so good you tend to forget you have them. No more hair collecting. As far as the magic seat at least now the right one does not rip the pocket on the back of the front seat.

I have blue stitching to match my Auto knob.
