Very nice! Did you get Callaway to trim the seats too?
I'd love to see more pics of those pedals...who makes them? It looks like they would really help with heel-toe downshifting.

I do not use my Z06 as a daily driver, but I have had a couple of long trips to Germany (from the Netherlands). No symptoms of fatigue at all.
The Pole Position is lighter than OEM (see link), the power system is retained on the driver side (the earlier C6 Z06 has none on the passenger side), it has no side air bag. There are provisions for a safety harness (I have Schroth 4-point).
You sit a couple of inches lower in the seat (1 1/2, I guess), which results in more head room, and you have more feed back from the car as well.
I bought mine via the Callaway subsidiary in Leingarten, Germany. You can also order them from Callaway in Old Lyme, CT.
You can buy them in virtually any color (for the leather, alcantara, stitches, and you can even order custom made embroidery), but that comes with a price of course.
To summarize: the Recaro Pole Positions really add value to the Corvette, I love them!

Very nice!
Which Radio/Nav Bezel (or Center Stack, whatever its called) is that? This one is from DSVettes and I bought it from Southern Car Parts. Both are supporting vendors here.
Nice wheel! Where did you get it from? This is a steering wheel from Callaway. See also my previous post.

I bought my Recaro's via Callaway, but they were prepared by Reinald Mattes Interieurtechnik (http://www.mattes-interieur.de/) in Germany. As a matter of fact, all Recaro seats are prepared by Reinald Mattes, if you order them with a special trim. See also my previous two posts.

Gas and dead pedals are from Elite Engineering (http://www.eliteengineeringusa.com/C6_Z06_Products.html).
