GB: JDM Rear Seats

Sorry the first thread somehow got deleted... <!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> Apparently there's a LOT of interest in these seats, given the huge number of requests I've been receiving. So I figured running a GB may help meet this large need.

The GB includes:
- The rear seats themselves
- The divider
- The rear panels
- Seatbelts (can be harder to find, so may ship after the seats & panels)

The rear carpet is subject to availability, as it's rarely included with the seats, and is quite difficult to find.

Cost: $750 shipped, tracked, and insured to your door.

The last list I had consisted of:

n rider89
Cash Money
Cccid
spr258
Racing hart

I know some changes were made to that (some ppl dropped off, some ppl still hadn't paid the balance) so lets iron it out, so those who are interested can get their seats, and those who aren't can sell their spot to those who are still PMing me and showing interested in joining.

Thanks!
~Ramy

They are very very small, only good for children and thats a stretch even. They are very neat though and I will be getting in on this (and the cloth seats he offers) when I can manage. The rear seats are much nicer than having the plastic crap back there in my opinion. They really should have offered them here in the states.

If you are at all in a hurry to get these then dont buy into the group buy. I have been waiting for about a year now to get these seats. I go months without hearing from ramy. If you do buy these seats patients will be your best friend .

not too concerned with getting adults in the back - but does anyone that has a set of these think that a baby seat would fit and anchor? That's a sort of important question for me as pertains to whether I can keep my FD or not next year. And yes, I know I could theoretically get a second car for the purpose - financially not really an option for me.

theyl definetly fit. dont think you could fit a booster seat though. mainly cuz of how far the seats dip in but the guy i bought mine off of had a 4-6 year old kid that he used the seats for so u shouldnt have a problem

Just finished making the crazy boxes (2) for your stuff. Shipping out this weekend, via EMS, so you'll have it in a few days.

Thanks,

I'm also interested in getting these seats.

I was wondering, installation wise, is this something you could install yourself or is it preferable to have it done professionally? It looks like it may require some drilling to mount the seat belts.

I know some people have installed them before. I am going to pick them up at my other house this week and should install them in the next couple of days. I will let you know how hard they are to install.

The seats went in VERY EASY. All the holes that need to be drilled were and plugged. Every single one. All i did was take the passenger seat out and everything went in no problem. It took about 4 hours and i took my time. If you were in a hurry and pressed for time you could install the seats in about a hour. I will take picks of them installed but they dont look like they could hold a person very comfortable but could hold a dog no problem. That is one reason i got them.

On a side note Ramy why do you send two sets of seat belts. The ones for the front work just fine. But next time could you include the bolts that mount the back of the seat to the trunk. That was the only thing i was missing. Thanks for all the hard work

spr258, my pleasure. Glad you were happy w/ the seats. And I sent what you & I paid for ;-) Your specific seatbelts were sold as a set, and since that was money you paid for, they're yours to do w/ as you please =-)

Thanks,
~Ramy

You'll be waiting for a very long time if you want them.
