Okay here is my dillemma... I'm sure some of you have, or soon will be going through the same thing. I am looking to replace the old weathered saddle front leather seats in my car! I have looked around but most of the 96-98 replacement saddle front leather seats I have seen look almost as bad if not worse than mine! and are usually about $300 for the set... :violent1:

Replacement upholstery is about $700 :sleepy1:

The other option is 03-04 Cobra seats! :headbang: but since they dont come in black /saddle that leaves me to mismatch the brown/tan 03-04 seats with my black/saddle interior or doing a black interior swap and getting black/grey 03-04 seats :nono: too much work in my opinion! and since cobra seats are worth their weight in gold a very expensive swap...

so I decided to search ebay and ran across these seats! i dont care for the harnesses and would probably just trash them, but give me your opinions on the seats... if I get these seats I would just have to find a black rear seat or just dye my black seat black!!!

Opinions!!! thought's, etc....

I was going to recommend Hunsaker seats, but it seems like they have disappeared off the face of the earth. I was saving up to replace the broken stock seats in mine and *poof*, they are gone :violent1:

these are the same seats from same vendor except for cobra vs nis at head rest. cost is less to ship for same seat is first thing i noticed. did you notice that after you spend $300 plus you will still need to buy "Custom brackets (not included)". i know that most aftermarket seats need brackets but not sure if you noticed those little things about that particular set. i am assuming that you did. i say they look nice and comfy but are they as they appear? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-Leather-Black-Blue-Racing-Seat-SENTRA-MAXIMA-240SX-/150445907388?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2307465dbc#ht_4347wt_958

Seats are YOUR LIFE why buy a cheapo seat to wonder if chong chin in china put them together, or the metal is of correct tensile strength...buy a quality seat or even a summit bran seat they are better quality and at least are made to SOME standard then the junk eBay's....

there are some 03 cobras that look like saddle-tan or pretty close, well worth a try though.

Corbeau or go home. Hopefully will have a set of CR1's this summer. Both weigh less then my leather drivers seat.

I saw those eBay ones in person and they suck, the cobra is sooo ugly, the material is crap, and the foam they use won't last you long before they sink all the way to the bottom. Just a heads up, you get what you pay for on these. I'd wait till a nice set to come along
