would these be cool front seats when recovered with matching vinyl?

I think the seats look simple enough to recover, and they are power too.

not a bad price either.

just making small talk, not sure if i'd want to partake in something like this or not. I mean my seats are in pretty good shape as it is.

If i did something like this I'd probably splurge for the heated seat inserts that you see on ebay too...

I'd be leery of putting any Ford parts in my Fiat

People's selling techniques really kill me. Those are listed as used/excellent condition and they don't even bother vacuuming them.

The only thing my Fiat shares with Ford is the clutch alignment tool!

I don't wanna see too much complaining about ford from fiat owners...
Fiat 500 = Ford Ka (even if it is 4 years in the future!)

well, I worked in a ford stamping plant for a summer (those guys are overpaid) and if the quality control in the other plants was as "good 'nuff" as ours was with body parts, then I'd not be all too surprsised by any stories you could tell me.

oh, and they all freaked out when I showed up in my Altima to work, but they didn't have a problem with the guys who drove their Made in Mexico Mazda, I mean Made in the US Ranger, trucks....

I am just finishing up installing a set of Tan Leatherette Seats out of a BMW E30... They look awesome... the only issue was I had to remove the old sliders and drill a few new holes, but it wasnt anything an angle grinder and a sledge hammer couldn't take care of
