| No, but with a 1/4 drive socket in 10mm you should be able to remove the seats in about 10 minutes, I just did. the 1/4 socket worked because of the thinner walls. Good luck. |

I'm really happy with the custom covers for $180. They fit like a glove. I did have to remove the seats to put them on tightly but it was worth it.

I just ordered these, they are custom made per order. I'll post some pics once I install them. I went with black with red inserts but they have several colors available including lighter ones.

AutohausAZ shows it for 129. Don't hack your car, all you'll do is wash your cylinders with fuel... not good.
Rasta, should I get the bigger collector for my 78? |

| Good buy for someone who wants a restored 924. In the restoration world, it sucks to be the guy who pays for the restoration and its great to be the guy who buys it already restored. |
