Sup everyone,

After searching endlessly for places to do the custom install for me, I finally found the place. Its called EXOTIC MOTORSPORT on Markham Rd and Finch.

I dropped it off this morning around 10am and got it back at 4pm, with EVERYTHING working (seatbelts, seatbelt sensors, sliding rails, etc).

I LOVE EM! Maybe not as supportive as say some Sparco Torino or Bride seats, but more comfortable and safer than the stock Camry seats.

Ill post pics on this thread tommorow when I can take some daylight photos.

latez.

Hey "Big R", you're TOO BIG for the seats. I'll gladly take them off your hands :razz:

I met up with Ratko after the job and I must say the install is very clean.
Next time Dave leaves his Celi alone, tell his brother to steal his steering wheel and seats for me

Groupbuy? What do ya say? We go to NC.org or Celispeed.com and persuade them to sell us their stock parts?

No need to wait. Just go to one of those "UFO beacon" gas stations and on your way back pick up a few KK donuts :grin:

Yeah they did do a very good job on the brackets. I'd paint the exposed metal parts with some black paint when it gets warmer.

Nice goin'! :wink:

Yes, about 1 inch lower, plus there is a manual seat height adjuster knob on the side of the driver seat. Also, they are taller than the stock seats, so the actual seats shows more around you when your driving, and the seat is a one-piece design which some can argue is safer in a rear-end collision, to prevent whiplash.

I checked out the NC.org boards and looked up how to clean them since they are a unique fabric and the concensus is that Turtlewax Power-Off is the best cleaner for these seats, so I went today to Canadian Tire and picked me up a bottle.

Good job Ratko. Nice pics.

As I promised, I tried to take pics of my car this weekend but couldn't because as soon as I washed my car I had salt sh** on it (when I drove on the highway) and then we have about 10cm of snow tonight.

This always happens when I wash the car!
