I traded the seats with my brother since I felt sorry for him, side bolsters in the T/A seats were hurting his back.
He did give me his Chrome 16x8 T/A wheels since he got a set of OZ Monte Carlos 17x9.5 for $200.

Those SS Seats look awesome in his T/A, makes the car look more luxurious, like an exotic.

But, the T/A seats fit me like a glove, and I like the power bolster and lumbar.
