Re: (ponta2147)
if that's true, I have a base set I'll swap!
1992 Chevrolet Camaro RS 305/5-speed, Bright Dark Teal
2009 Pontiac Vibe Base 1.8L/5-speed, Carbon Grey
I'll comment on that. The seat fabric in the GT was one of the reasons I preferred getting the base 2.4l. Can't stand the fabric style on the GT seat. Looks like big polka dots to me. Now, I'll say the base seats aren't fabulous but I do prefer the look by far over the GT fabric.If I had the money, eventually leather Katzkin seats with perforated inserts (and red piping!) would find their way into my Vibe.
1997 Civic EX sedan w/auto trans2001 Accord EX sedan w/5-spd manual2009 Vibe 2.4L w/5-spd manual, sunroof, monsoon, GT spoiler, Magnaflow muffler and rolled SS tip, lowered on H-Tech springs, window tint, debadged (save the red arrow!).

I really wish the seats were either all leather or all cloth. I don't like the combination. I would totally trade someone straight up for their base seats!

Only 3700 miles huh !The seats aren't a huge priority for me, but if I had the opprotunity I would definitely trade them.
