haha i was actually thinking of puting bride seats in the car.. but i am attached to the heated seats too much
Wouldnt putting the heating element be super easy? Just take the seat cover off and place the pad under it just like our seats are. Would get super hot quickly due to thinner material/not leather. You'd just have to verify that there isnt a ignition problem with the padding material....even though i doubt that due to most racing seats having some sort of flame retardent to them.

damn didnt even think of that.. knowing my luck i would ruin the heating pads or something.. Hmmm carbon fiber reclineable seats would be nice though i think even tenzo-r makes them for 1500 each

I uploaded them through the Gallery section, so i dont know if that will update the thumbnails on the site.

I may be wrong but doesnt the thumbnails come from your Flickr for JDMLove? The pics i uploaded went to the "JDMLove Flickr Group" pool.

http://www.flickr.com/groups/jdmlove/

Threw in a bunch of pics i have of shoots with Min's TL, and Chris's TSX. We'll see how it goes updating.
Plugin was fudged, all fixed up now images pull perfectly!

Yea shit is so costly. Id really like to re-upholster my bolsters (sides) with a dark micro-fiber/suede. Think it would look really good, hold a little better, and wont crack like 4 year old leather. Once again though...money money money.

UA6/UA7 = 3rd Gen TL no JDM counterpart, only the Chinese Domestic Market (CDM) version

I'll try to get there. Depends on the wife and fam.

Zhi or Zyuan on here who never logs on anymore has the Weds on his TSX. Bought them from a local member named Russel or ruffelprefley who sold his TSX for a GTI not all to long ago. Zhi was at the meet at the mall last year, drives an ABP TSX.
