Default C4 seats

I`m looking to by these chairs for roughly 420$ they are complete with elcmotors and such.The problem is that i`ve got Saddle interior and it might be kinda "odd" looking..Is it possible to redye them black?


Edit: I bought them anyway..If the dont fit like i want to, i can always use them as a really comfy garagechair :smash: :cheers:

Shop around! You can get cheaper than that, and you dont need the electric motor stuff....right?

I bet some of the venders have leather seat covers so you could just pull the cloth off and have very comfortable leather seats for a decent price.

(Quick web searching.....)
Leather covers with foam:

Damn it...I read Zwedes thread about convering and that you cant use the Electrical chairs and that theres some heavy modding to make it work,so i backed down from the deal...damn it, damn it..I really like the way they look... :(

Graphite cloth sport seats are semi-rare. You can use them in a C3 without the motors. Just use your existing tracks.

you have to take the motors off unless you want your head sticking up through the t-top.

Are you saying that you can just interchange the tracks ??? Take off C-4 's
and install the C-3 tracks , w/o any mods??
