Took my car to "Joe's" here in Norfolk. Nice gentleman who has been doing auto upholstery for
35 years (and also does jobs for Checkered Flag Audi).
He's going to re-do both the TT's front seats.
Lower bolsters will be taken out and lowered by approx. 1" (bar inside pressed down and out, thus effectively lowering the bolsters), bolster and seat padding removed and replaced with memory foam, and the worn side panels replaced with factory leather). Will be leaving the upper portions of the seats alone (they feel fine to me).
Total cost: $600. Would rather spend the money on some good, used Sparcos but haven't found the ones I want and I cannot sit in those seats for 2800 miles straight...no friggin' way. Though some here feel the seats are "fine," my *** tells me the seats are just too damn uncomfortable for anything but short trips. Hey, guess I'm too sensitive. The seats are the last major thing needed to make this ride very comfortable (for me).
