My new seats just came in. I ordered them from GTS Classics and when they came in... WOW.

Take a look. The picture is crappy. I will try to get a better one later.

Yes, they are the Watkins Glen. I had them done in leather on the outside, and the inserts are leather that was pressed to match the square weave pattern.

I wanted them to match the rest of the interior, but be leather.

how much did they cost?

2,600 shipped with the full leather, special leather inserts, and multi temperature tushy warmers.

Previously, I had to stop by Taco Bell to keep my tushy warm.

You are in Los Angeles?

Sweet seats, though!

Yes. I like driving year round with the roof off. In the winter the seat warmers are the difference between stopping to put the roof back on and motoring home comfortable.

And I'm spoiled. smile.gif

They are a little snug, but the smell of new leather is intoxicating.

How's the handbrake clearance?

I used the factory mounts you just have to drill them for the bigger bolts that were provided.

The ebrake handle clears just fine. I am tall so the seat is pretty far behind the ebrake.

I am down for a meet up... but can you turn the heat down a little?
