I can only see one pic, unless I use the refresh button, but I'm lazy. Doesn't matter...only pic I needed to see was the rear pic of your car (with the bumper sticker).

EJ86 : Thanks. I went to a upolstry shop and got it done for $200.


PuNiSh3R:Are those seats comfortable or what?? And do you like the silverstar headlights?

EJ86 : Yeah, they're nice bucket seats. You can adjust the seat to make it wide and they have the lil pump for cushioning. I like the silverstars they're brighter than stock ones and they don't look yellow anymore.

hachi_slow: I can only see one pic, unless I use the refresh button, but I'm lazy. Doesn't matter...only pic I needed to see was the rear pic of your car (with the bumper sticker).

EJ86 : I can see all the pix. Maybe your computer is slow like a hachi-go. The pic of the rear had a bumper sticker that said "Philippines" and it had those JDM tails and center garnish.

Uh... You didn't pay a lot of money for that steering wheel did you? Cuz both my 1986 Corolla GT-Ss came stock with them. They were avaliable over here so they arn't really anything special.

They might fit your seat rails but I'm not sure. If it dosen't you can always try modifying your current seat rails with cut pieces for stainless steel sheet metal i guess. You can pick them up out of a beat up 85-87 Corolla GT-S or buy it off some one stripping a Corolla GT-S. I do have some extra seats but they are pretty beat up.

stock


JDM

I have a 1985 Corolla GTS, so I was stuck w/ the 2 spoke steering wheel w/ the squar horn. It was only $60 bucks. They go on ebay for like $80-$150. They're much better than my stock one I had, but one thing I noticed about that steering wheel, is that you can't see your cuise control, but other than that I drive better w/ it. Have you see this steering wheel:








This is off a JDM black limited trueno (Last time I saw these they were 300 bucks on club4ag)

The black limited steering wheel is a nice find. However, either way I find the stock 86 steering wheels to be too big in diameter. The steering wheel that comes on US GT-S' comes on Canadian SR5's. BTW if you know anyone else interested in a "jdm/cdm" gts steering wheel I just pulled mind off my car and it's in mint condition.
