I have often thought about gen 3 or 4 seats in my SHO. For right nowmy 94
Opal Frost is my daily driver but I really hate destroing the original
leather. Everyone that has seen my leather has commented, WSo I think that
after the convention is over I might be swapping the 50/50 seats outta my 95
SE for daily driver use and wear. It only takes an hour to swap interiors.
I'd love to find a set of "right priced" gen 3 or gen 4 seats, even cloth.
Just cause then I won't feel bad jumpiung in the car covered in mud from
mountain biking.

94 Opal Frost MTX
93 Black ATX - winter beater then parts car :-)
