The best part of the seats is by using the old frame, I am able to bolt right in and remove just like the old one. As for the console, I did the test fit and need to widen a bit and make sure I place the manual transmission hole in the right place without any binding. I should be doing that in the next coming weeks as I just came back from the East coast trip. I will post more once the rear seats is complete.

Awesome, can't wait to see more progress.

That is pretty sweet it is an in and out deal with the rear seat.

I'm looking forward to the console...I'd love to do that and have the arm rest etc...I'll let you figure out the hard part and then follow suit :lol:

I have the rear finally installed. looks and feel awesome. I will finish with carpeting today as well. if you can avoid ACC carpet I would recommend that, as much work goes into cutting it up to fit.

I was test fitting the Front seats, Not going so well. I need to change out the mounting brackets as it sits too far back. As you can see by the pics, no room in the back with the SRT8 set up. Any ideas?

Well, the carpet at least looks good, lol.

The seats look awesome...did you have the rear threaded with purple or is that just the lighting? If it wasn't for the SRT8 logo on the front seat, you'd think you just had them custom made. Looking forward to seeing more progress, especially the console! At least you'll be comfortable and have side bolsters for either power plant you pick out.

I had the stiching redone in Plum Crazy. I didn't do the head rest as it was out of red car and it has the dvd pocket. Looking for a Plum crazy replacement on EBAY.

Very cool, hope you can land a set...I forget that the SRT cars have the headrest electronics...a few guys in the club have loaded Charger R/Ts with the same.
