Just wondering if anyone has any cool seat substitutions that worked well in a teener.
Got any pics?

I'm not interested in racing seats, its a street car, but I'd still like some support.
I really like Sparco Milano, but $1199 ea in leather- YIKES!

I looked at Saturn SC seats for my Alfa once, and they looked nice.

Thanks!

The Renegade conversion is the nicest street seat I've seen. Looks like early 911 sports seat.

I fit Koenig Seats in my car, but they are really suited for racing. And if your butt is big, it would be a tight fit.

These did come with sliding mechansim to let you move the seat forward and backwards. I had to fabricate my own seat mounts to bolt to the floor. They feel very nice, but are probably more oriented towards racing.

Yeah! My car will definatly have either Sparco Milano seats or Cobra Misano seats. Very posh, very racy. The only problem is that I wanted tan interior, but maybe I'll have to settle for black. No biggie.

I have OMP Comfort seats. They are black cloth, but they will be re-upholstered with leather soon (I hope...). I have custom made FG back pad too. Its not ready in the pic, sorry...

I use Paint Shop Pro. They are built into the software. I can choose from 4 different designs and set the color and thickness of the arrow.

Most photo editing tools have them buried in the software somewhere.

I have Photshop & have looked a couple of times can't find them. Paint Shop is a lot easier to use than Photoshop.

Mark,

I cant find the arrows in Adobe. I use Adobe primarily because it auto generates thumbnail HTML pages for me in a batch process.

Start a new thread on how to use the photo editing tools. We need one.

to get arrows in photoshop, use wingdings or webdings...just start typing until you find the one you want...it may take a while, but there's a lot of stuff in webdings and wingdings.
