I thought I posted it earlier, but I must be mistaken with some other parts. Lots of part numbers flying around. Anyhow, all items in the below graphic – with the exception of 3, 5 ,6, and 9 – in the quantities listed.

That first part looks like a package of something that looks like a bunch of staples. Are these designed to help secure the cover to the seat? The diagram doesn't show where these are supposed to be used. Regardless, I guess these would be useless without a "stapler" device, right? ?

Looks good! Happy you like them - the cloth seats looked so out of place. I couldn't be happier with mine, even though they are a bit more maintenance, and am glad others are doing the mod.
Hey, I'm kinda new around here. Could you link me to the info you posted on these seats, and how much did this mod cost?I almost near mod my cars in any way but I'd actually consider this.

We are getting some random cold weather this weekend in the Midwest so I went ahead and threw my winter wheels and tires on. I definitely like how they look on the car and they stick out a little bit more.

Worked with WC Lathewerks to have a custom titanium knob ordered similar to the Voodoo knob I've used in my Miatas for the last 20 years. It will have this shape with the flare at the bottom sized for our OEM boot retainer in brushed titanium:

I've got all of the front speaker replacements ordered for an "OEM+" upgrade using 2ohm drivers from CDT Audio. Based on prior experience I expect it to be a noticeable improvement using the stock Bose electronics at a very moderate cost and low install effort. To get more you really need to start adding amps and the costs and install effort rapidly escalate.

CDT Audio
ES-6.2 door
CF-3 dash ***update*** I measured the OEM dash speaker, it's 4ohm so a different speaker choice is warranted here (the CF-3 is a 4ohm DVC).
ES-1200iS tweeters

A more detailed thread is in the Int/Ext forum.

It's probably been like 3 weeks since I had a chance to wash the car.
She's super shiny now. I love how championship white always looks pretty darn clean all the time.

Installed NSX Y-Spoke wheels for my winter wheel\tire setup. Using 255/35/19 Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate tires. They feel great so far.
Those look great! What size and offset are those wheels?
