Was your price out the door installed?
Do they use the same frames/rails? I'm guessing they aren't motorized?
My motors are shot on both seats, seat foam is bad, seat frame on drivers is bad, etc. I'm really thinking this looks like a good idea rather then fix with oem parts and eventually seat covers.

Congrats on the install !
I'm loving mine too. Its amazing how much more confidence you have in driving when you have a seat that holds you in place !
I agree... why spend $800 to recover the crappy GM seats when you can have these....

Where did you buy the seats? I know that TPS (CF Vendor) is having some kind of a sale on them.

Nice, now all you need is a set of CORBEAU retractable harnesses. I have a set of black with silver lettering. PM me for details and congrats on the new saddle

Did the A4s in my Son's FRC a couple years ago.
Had to do drivers on pass side etc.
Hard to reach the lever, hard to get in and out of.
IMO they are a downgrade from Sportseats.

I *think* this is the first negative comment I've seen on the seats since I've started searching recently.
It is nice to have another opinion.
Are they a downgrade because they are hard to get in and out of?
Is it because of the larger bolsters?
Is it a downgrade because of the difficulty in reaching the retraction lever?
I am just trying to get an idea for myself as I am considering the A4's. I am not trying to be critical.
TIA.
