The rear seat back kinda remind me of the TTA back seats.

Obviously not the SAME, but similar, in that they don't touch each other.

WOW! Those look awesome! They really look like they're made for it. I can't believe how well the rear seats fit. What kind of fabrication did you have to do to mount the rear sections? and front?

Re: what do you think of my seats?

there is a bracket for the front seat that have to come off cause they will be to high when they go in,but the runners from the camaro fit nice,better that i thought they would, and the rear seat were a bit more of a venture lol, i just split the back from the old seat and then took the material from the vw jetta seats and matched it to the old material from the camaro and sewed it to fit. i also cut about a half inch from the front runners to lower them some more, but its not that hard bit it takes a lot of time and patiences,

I would have found some without the badging, but nice job thinking outside the box.
