Hutchinson, KS.  I will ask my boss to let me use my work car, an 04 Vibe,
for a few days.  I am pretty sure he will let me.  If the seat was a direct
swap I was going to swap them, but if it is any harder then that I don't
think it's worth the trouble.  I told him we should put the business name on
the Vibe and let me Autocross it!  Not very fast but can just about do
figure-eights in a parking space.

It is costing me $250 to get both my front seats redone professionally by a
friend of a friend.  I am having it done in fake leather.  It's a daily
driver so I don't want to get crazy with it, but I want it to look nice.  I
also want it fairly comfy for the 2 hours a day I am in it.  The seats will
look factory from a glace except she is stitching "SHO" in the seat backs in
big letters.  I was thinking use the solid vinyl for the letters on the
perforated vinyl seat and outline it in white stitching.  Will post pics
when done.
