19lb racing seats.

Here's a somewhat better view of them...
PS: I've since replaced the "Momo" lettered horn button with a full color porsche crest button.

I see you've decided to come over to the 'Dark Side', eh, Sniper.

Welcome aboard - I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.

Snipe, any bigger pics of your engine bay? From your avatar pic it looks like you've done some nice detailing mods. I'd like to see more.

That looks like a leather dash! It needs some work [loose leather in the driver's side window picture], but it's in decent shape. The steering wheel and seats are positives, in my view.

N!

Randy: Thanx for the welcome bro. I'm over here seeking some info on nitrous systems for my 928.

Pierre: As far as posting more pictures, I think i used up all my free photo space on rennlist.

I've posted other pix of my 928(engine and otherwise) at other boards. I'll hunt down a link tonight and post it for you fellas on this thread.

WRT the shifter, it's the OEM shifter lever with a MOMO shift **** and boot. In person it looks good(except for the chrome that rubbed off the $140 dollar momo ****, pos that it is), that's just a funky angle in that picture. I want to get the jager shifter with the button for the kickdown bypass(you can see the protected red toggle i'm using now in the one picture)

Normy: Yep, it's a leather dash. It is a bit loose by the drivers door, but you're actually only the second person that's ever even noticed. If it gets worse i will address it, but for now i rationalize it away by saying, "it's just a 'character trait'".

The center console was ripped to hell, i had that redone in vinyl, i'm very happy with how it came out(especially for the price----175 bucks, installed by a friend of mine that owns a custom interior shop)

Hey Pierre, i like the little scoops on your hood.

Did you have them cut into your existing hood, or did you buy it that way?

I am looking for a set of seats for my 928 and am curious about what brand your seats are. How is the quality and how are they for comfort in daily driving? Did you gain any headroom with the install? Also, does the company provide mounts for the 928 or did you have to fab something up? Thanks. Joe
