Nick, you know too much.

This should be well on it's way by the end of next week.

I've been looking at seats all day. I'm so tempted to sell mine and just run two front buckets. Any takers? ;)

@ the meet when Phill was fitting my interior to his car I picked up his seats, only just.
He has the S3 seats which look nice but must weight about 35Kg's each. The OEM LCR ones are about 15-20 Kgs I'd say.
Lightweight seats are the way forward.
I went to Demon tweeks when @ the meet, its well worth a visit to get your bum in the seats to see how they feel.
But leave you credit card @ home because its an petrol heads paradise in there.
Litterally I could have spent £3,000 without even thinking about it

hey aaron cars looking good cant wait to see what power the car makes when the turbo is on . got a lil question when you done your boot install did you make a box to enclose the sub or is it just fixed to the mdf and left free in the spare wheel well i need boot space so thinking of doing the same . i was thinking of dynomating the boot and fixing a mdf sheet to the floor and cutting a hole in it to mount the sub .. unsure if it needs a box tho

5Kgs are SERIOUSLY light seats. The ones I was looking at in Demon tweeks were all 5Kgs + and these were £1,400 carbon fibre ones. Also the weight is without the side mounts and runners.
