what brackets and sliders did you get for the seats? Also let me know how easy they are to get in or if you have to do some custom work. Take pics if possible. Also is 650 for both seats?

yes the $650 is for both seats and I got the 94-97 accord sliders and brackets. I got them from my local honda dealer but I have known the parts guy there for a few years. Check out mmrusa.com. they have good deals on Tenzo R's

I work, made $1,500 at my grad party, got $500 for seats for getting a full ride wrestling scholarship, and had about $900 in the bank before I started. I also have my car paid off.

o yeah, and because I installed the hood myself, and that the body shop wont have to pay for anything, the $1541.92 check they wrote me, they are only chargine $600 for the hail repair. So installing the hood myself saved me $900! Actually earned me money! So the hood is free and I have $500 in cash!
