Default Nice Interior, Nice work by someone

The photo I am going to link is of a really well done custom interior in a C5. I am fairly confident I got it here on the forum, and hope I don't offend by linking it.

http://a03-b03.mypicturetown.com:80/...item.jpg?rot=1

But I would really like to know if someone knows with certainty what seats those are (brand and model), and how they were mounted. Lets say for argument that one wanted to keep the stock memory feature in the C5 seat rails (for me it is a literal necessity, not debatable), so how can it be done?

Then consider the leather work. Most hi-grade aftermarket seats have better leather than the comparable C5 seat (most, not all). That is one of the C5's disappointments. Are these seats (leather, colors, and pattern of mixing colors) part of the aftermarket product, or was that done separately as well.

If the real owner sees this, he can help us to say the least. This is really nice work by whoever owns this car. Obviously copying is the sincerest form of flattery, and there are elements here i would like to copy. Starting with.. Surprise! The seats.

Any other comments and/or photos displaying other ideas are not only welcome, but asked for. Please jump in!

Thanks as always, Arthur in Baton Rouge

The gorgeous vert in the pic belongs to a local friend and forum member TJB-VETTE.
Shoot him a PM, I'm sure he will be glad to answer any of your questions.

Seats, and SW are Caravaggio's, the seats mount to the stock power base so everything is still functional.

Console cover is another vendor.
