Yes, my wife was able to get into the back seat as I had the kidlet's car seat upfront in the passenger seat (with an airbag override switch).

Thanks David - that's good news. Can you tell me where you found the seats?

The seats in my car are bolted to the floor with Brey-Krause brackets for max headroom. No access to the back seats for me.

I bought my seats for a fellow RL'er

Sorry the wheels don't do it for me but then I prefer the stock seats and steering wheel, too.

Thanks. The cost of reupholstering stock seats, replacing seat foams and worst of all, trying to find Flamenco red leaves me thinking of GT3 seats, with Flamenco cushions, leaving the rest black....

I met roarke01 at a Cars-n-Coffee this morning. Let me give full praise to this car color combo, seats and wheel package. One of the sharpest cars I have seen. Great in pics, even better in person.

Super nice guy on top of all that.

Thanks, Spidey

Appreciate the props for my car - and yours is nothing to sneeze at. Very, very nice. Plus, we got to see Barney too.

A great way to spend a Saturday morning with fantastic cars and people to match.

Agreed! Arena Red is soooo much better in person than it is in pictures! Fantastic looking car you have there. Great to see it and meet you for the first time!

That whole Cars-N-Coffee thing worked out great for me too! Got up at the crack of dawn, had a great ~1.5 hour drive, saw some great machinery, met some great people and was home in time to have some fun with my family too! Will be there again!

Try checking with GMP performance. RH has a style called the turbo-p wheel that look very similar to these. I have the porsche AL cups from RH.
