I can't believe that the regular non leather seats are 2500 for just the uppers and 2000 for the lower seat cushion. Thats just crazy.
Thats a third of the price for the car (10k) after you buy the left+right full seats. lol. Dealer Markup FTL...

I dont even wanna know how much the leathers are..
After seeing the cost and Not that I do now, but I will "not" be letting my car outta my sight now.
And I have the Viper 791-xv 2way alarm and GPS tracker on it.

And whats a set of top of the line "BRIDE" seats go for? 2 grand -maybe a piece, lol

Might be a blessing, you can get better seats and have $ to play with now.
I'd take a check from insurance and pay deductible and then get some BRIDE GIAs and have 4+ grand to play with. for alarm,Glock, etc, etc..

good luck, sorry to hear that..
theiving bastards, hope you catch em..
and BTW: I'd keep a sharp eye out for a while, they may be back to get the rest.

Sorry to hear that bro. I had a close call too this one time when I was out of town and parked my car under the light. Some *** came and stopped next to my Evo for a long time. Good thing my cousin's wife and them walk the dog to poop and saw them. They turned on all the lights and those f***ers left. Next year, my No. 1 Mod will be a good alarm system. Hope you got those suckers since the cops are doing finger prints. GL

those prices are unreal. I'll have to call the insurance adjuster and tell them what you all said.

I liked my leather recaros so...

what do you guys recommend that's even better?

my goal is comfort first. I may eventually track the car... in about 10 years time.

The inconvenience hurts, a good alarm is a must...that and an 'equalizer' BTW anyone want to suggest a good shop in VA that does a good job on alarm installs on EVOs for FYI purposes.

I need an Alarm install shop.

The only one that does compustar installs around here is in Hoodbridge, how fitting.
