C7 Seats in a C6
So, saw the Car and Driver video comparing the C6 and C7 seats. Who is going to make the kit or bracket or whatever so I can put a pair of C7 seats into my C6?

I took and friend for a ride in the C6. He has had chronic neck and back problems stemming from his body building days. He did have trouble getting in, due to the neck, but the first words out of his mouth where these seats are comfortable. He is not car oriented so has had no prior notion of the seats good or bad.
I found this refreshing oddly.

Go buy the seats and get a shop to make the bracket kit and you'll get to be the supplier. Do it quick, so someone else isn't first.

I just put Recaro Profi XL seats in my car. Not sure I would do it again. Changing seats is a real hassle because the seat area is narrow and electronics causes issues.
