But anyways, congrats on the leather setup. Get some leather door inserts, trust me. It makes a huge difference.
very true...and i dont think i want the door inserts...i like the grey because it matches the carpet and it dosent make the black overpowering

How do you expect to do that without having the seats show signs of the stitching being removed?
Why not just do 350Z seats and have them monogramed?

It was just an idea, I haven't thought it through yet. My mental energy now is being spent on class and my LED retro... But yes that sounds much easier for my Grandma to do . Less than a year from now I'll know for sure on what to do w/ my seats.

Also what logo do you have? I coulda swore you have like a 95 w/ a 97-99 conversion?

All I know is, I do want seats to hold me in better w/ butt toasters, and I want to keep my "SE" logo, also I want the SE logo in the back seat too, I don't know yet if I want them in the seat or just the middle arm rest, who knows, I need moar Bemer inspiration.

My car is a 96 with a 97-99 front bumper and 97-99 styled CF trunk.
No logos on my seats, just clean and simple black leather.

He's gonna say a price but it really doesn't matter, cause there's always deals goin on online everywhere, check g35driver, the z sites, nicoclub, etc... Should be around $700-$800 for Z front seats and I30 Rear (heated) seats. But i've seen Z seats go for 300, and I30 seats go for 250... So you never know.

Seats look great. Really good condition.

I agree with flava, get some oem black door inserts. I swapped my grey cloth for black leather, drove around for a few months with the grey cloth inserts and realized it wasn't a complete look.

Attempted simply covering the inserts with black vinyl.... looked ok for about 2 weeks and it began to bubble and pull away. Save yourself the time and money and don't attempt doing it that way.

Finally found oem inserts for a reasonable price and wow what a difference. Makes the interior look very classy.

No, you have to have the rear upper which has the posts holes for the headrests.

No, they are not. Some have got them to fit, but they are not direct bolt ins.

Honestly I wonder if it'll be easier to just slide in the heat pads from the i35 into the i30 seats... but meh, another discussion for a later time.

It looks like this thread was once about interior components of 4th generation Maximas. I have a line from a nice guy for a steering wheel.
However, my back seat has been sun baked and some time in the near future I'd like to replace it. Same for the driver seat.
Can anybody point me in the direction of where I might find parts like those I outlined?
Thank you

Interior looks really good man. Not to sound like a little b***h, but after reading some replies I'm glad my new Max had those seats stock. I'd hate to have to find a good set, and paying for them even more...

.... ugh....

there's a section on this forum for that, since you don't have enough post go spend time in the general maxima discussion or even in here, then start your own wtb thread in the general maxima parts section of the for sale section.
