Back seats are just two clips that are in the firewall/top of parcel shelf I think??

Its been a year since I stripped mine lmao cant remember either!

Well I paid £70 the lot, so cant complain! Better looking than any mini seats and comfy as hell too

£70!!!!!! Absolute bargain there, I'd love it if you got the rear seats in as we'll it would be so different to standard and like you say better than any mini seats I've ever seen

Some really cool ideas in that thread that. Was posted earlier

i also have alfa seats in mine :shifty:

156 momo seats in full leather :D did come with an arm rest but had to saw off due to a tight squeeze (giggady)

there heated, airbagged, adjustable forward, back, up and down!

got the front, rears, door cards (front and back) and door pillars :s for £120 posted!

the door cards are no use unless you chop the speaker mounts off and fibreglass them to a door card or sommit but i dont do that :)

want some pics??

Sounds awesome would love some pics

Are all alfa 156 seats heated do you know? Also what about the Alfa logo in the centre any ideas how you could cover it? Not sure I'd like a whopping great logo at the best of times let alone a different make

Your seats look good mate. What did you do about the sub frames, did you customise the originals? Or just make some from scratch?

Just one thing and tell me to mind my own business if you want but how much did you pay for your seats?
