again, thanks for your ideas.
oh yeah FYI, we have seat and child seat made by Recaro



by the way, you got a new banner huh?
yeah i noticed you guys got the recaro seats upgrades. though i have to ask. what's your philosophy behind it when you guys are pushing for vip? for vip i think it should be about luxury, comfort, etc... but looking at the recaro seats, they are nice, but very sporty, i am not sure if they are as comfortable? rather i thought some better upgrades seats, leather, cushion, heated seats, massage, etc... those might be more appropriated? hope you don't mind, i am just tring to help

and hey hey hey, since i came up with the idea, do i get to do the test fit for you guys on those R&D ideas? j/k

oh and yeah, new signature, want people to see my sc430

One other possible product is to make a custom LED replacement for the dome light, map lights and entry lights for the 2nd gen GS. I can almost guarantee that you will not be able to keep up with the orders.

Here is an example of an LED dome light replacement in an SC.



And ofcourse the LED spot lights that Rominl already mentioned under the side skirts like this:

ah very interesting, i didn't know about those features. are they just as soft as the stock seats though? now you guys just need to put massager in it as well

i wonder what's the price tag for them, i can imagine it's not pretty

thanks hameed for the pics. yup that's what i was talking about, very nice for vip cars i think

oh and about the interior led, there are tons of them out there already, i think price would be a big big factor. jp is more about exclusivity, so if they are priced a lot higher than outside like their halogen bulbs, etc... i am not sure if they will generate tons of sales.

just to be honest here

You know what they say - if you have to ask how much it is, you can't afford it.

There may be tons out there, however I have yet to see one that is decent. They are all mickey mouse simple LED bulb swaps. Not a complete redo of the light itself to have multiple LED's so that the light output is reasonable.

Practically every single one I have seen - the light output is just pathetic. Even a lot of the custom ones suck.

Anyone who wants to do mods like this would be willing to spend the money to get a good quality product. I know I would and I am not loaded like you are.

really? i thought given the time already the led setup would be pretty nice. have you tried the ones pete (PHML) brought in before? i personally isn't huge fan of led on non-led places, so i don't have much led in my car. but the ones i have they are pretty decent

i agree though, if most of the stuff out there are half ***, we need some work on this

and yeah, given how cheap i am, i wish i could afford jp stuff.... wait, i do have jp grille and taillights on my gs400, but that's why i am broke @_@

I have tried everything - even the custom route and I am still not happy. However I am still confident it can be done properly if a company invests the R&D to do it right.

Half ***?? You mean complete ***!

i am just curious, how long does it take to make one of thsoe seats then? i suppose it's all custom made to orders. and it's going to be plug and play on the stock rails? or people have to get their custom rails made? and this is available to both driver and passenger side?
