Two years later and my genuine leather version is still holding up perfectly fine for me! Some installation pics of brackets I made and such. Read in the thread below.

I bought the leather version and shipped to my door in LA was $620.00..I used the original seat brackets and welded the Yonaka brackets to them..I've read on another thread that someone else tried to install a set and they didn't fit well mine did and fit pretty well..There isn't much room to work with but what is in a C5 !!

I'm 6' tall and right now the seats sit a little higher then the stockers but are very comfortable and look pretty good to me....

am I doing something wrong, I can't see your pics, all I see is a blue box with a question mark in it. I'd love to see your install pics

If one posts pics using Photobucket and then once posted here, deletes them from photobucket, say to "clean up" their album or whatever, the pics here get that "deleted" icon.

IOW.....if you post from PB, leave them alone in PB.....if ya'll want US to see them.....

At least that's MY theory here....
