Tore out the seats from the donor car, cleaning and conditioning them for the keeper! They're looking wonderful!

Ive had MB Battles on 2 of my SC's for years. Wanted a different set up and came across these for a steal. Half of the peeps i asked liked them half didnt. Stick with GUN MEATAL MB's or switch for SC430 pie rims (possibly wanna be vip-ish look)?

I would keep the MB wheels on. The SC430 wheels didn't look good on my friend's SC. Your car is black so it may look better.

A small $3 bushing that cleans up the shift **** slop on later W58s; a part my dealership had quite literally never ordered before.

Installed my new seats last night. Don't have pics of them in the car yet, since it was finished long after the sun went down.
Prepping for installation.



The planted seat brackets I got also made me ride wayyyyyyyy too high. I was using MK4 Supra seats before, and this shot me up a few inches in the seat moving to them.



Seats are Braum Elites if anyone is interested.

Since the planted brackets won't work for me... I just did this.




Also, I had previously installed a new shift **** and shifter boot in the car. Here is a current interior shot.

Excuse the mess. I'll have it cleaned up this weekend more and will be posting better photos to my instagram: @draelren

In the mean time, here you go. (Yes I'll be switching to black interior soon, already got the first parts on the way)
