Ok, in the unlikely even that I want to sell my OEM seats and get some sort of racing seat instead, what would be the price you all would be willing to pay? I know there's a bunch of people interested in leathers, and I'm curious how much they could go for. I'd have to buy racing seats afterward, so the price needs to be pretty high (around $400 or more) for this to be possible, is this in anyone's ballpark?
Pictures of my interior are all over the site, but if I need to post again, holler. They're pretty much perfect condition, very slight wear on the driver's left hip and thigh area, on the edge. Other than that, there's no problems with them
Not saying they're for sale, just trying to see a general price... Any offers? And no, I don't take pocket lint and donuts... *cough*Tibbychick*cough* nana.gif

maybe 400$ for ALL around seats.. front and rears.. but i doubt anyone would pay CLOSE to that for just the fronts. specially with cost it would be to ship them.
i would think the max people would pay for front leathers would be about 350 shipped, which would be about 200-250$ before shipping.
people could get a nice set of celica, rsx, or srt4 seats to mod into the tib for about 250$ + shipping and would be an upgrade over the stock seats.
400$ for OEM (assuming front only and not shipped) is ALOT. just my .02 though.

Lol, the 'airram effect' is essentially ripping people off because the part is rare and in demand. wink1.gif As one of the people in the market for leather fronts though I can tell you I'd never pay near that much. $400 is a nice set of aftermarket seats.

The only reason there is an "airram effect" on the airram is because it's a part thats super hard to find, and which was expensive to begin with, now that they are becoming more and more scarce, you have a really high price for one.
The leather seats on the other hand, are somewhat rare, but still attainable with some luck and perseverance for a good price.
Personally, i wouldn't pay more than $350 shipped (and I'd have to be feeling pretty un-frugal at the time), because for just a bit more than that, i can have all the seats reupholstered in brand new leather in all black instead of the black/grey combo

Ya i dont think your going to get that much out of them. Like people said you can get a nice pair of racing seats for just about that much. This may be a craigslist or E-bay item, Esp for the shipping cost.
