Just a little too much on the rice side IMO. The colored ones are kinda cool though. Just don't like the way the top looks. --------------------

Just don't like the way the top looks. from someone who had 6th gen seats and now 7th gen seats in my 94 celi, the 7th gen seats are 10x nicer and more comfortable than 6th gen seats. perhaps your 7th gen friends are speaking of the car itself? i read somewhere that recaro manufactured those seats for toyota. i could be wrong tho. 7th gen seats are nicer imo, more sporty/modern looking, if u have a color theme in your car - you can get them stock to match, more comfortable than 6th gen seats (took a 4 hr drive before the swap and 4 hr drive after... 6th gen seats<7th gen seats, hands down). the brackets can be custom made for 50-100 bucks for both. so at most, youd be spending $150 on brand new seats... i say go for it. --------------------

Don't do it imo. Find some nice leather 6th gen seats, and keep the oem look.

Here's a how-to > http://www.celica-club.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=49442
