howdy fellas, just wonderin what the different seat options are to put into a e series.

I know it will have to get engineered, but thats easy enough to get if u know the right people.

So pretty much has anyone put the BA leather seats in, or any other seats?

Or is cheaper/easier to get your old seats repadded and recovered?

cheers

Probably have to agree with you there! I have been pretty dissapointed with the DC leathers I threw in the Lane, well the drivers seat anyway, it's not very comfy.
But the exception would have to be the Recaro leather/velour seats I have in the EB Ghia. They are very comfy and a good looking seat too imo! (might have to swap them into the lane....sshhh! Don't tell the missus :P )
Cheers,
Mick

My boss has a Lexus! They are very comfy and are electric adjustable as well. Wouldn't be too hard to fit into a lane, I think they would be pretty pricey though!

you would be able to pick them up for a good price these days i reckon.

some of the early 90's models are selling for as low as $7,000 now.

we traded ours in last week and only got $7,500 for it, 1994 LS400, mint condition.

id reckon youd be able to pick up some seats for about $500.
