Good stuff guys - I appreciate the feedback. I am talking to Paul about the console switch replacment option already. I will discuss seats with him too. It is down the line anyway, after all other mechanicals are sound.

Really the seat is not bad at all, just can feel a little play front to back at the base (feels like the front may not be tight to the floor). otherwise feels quite stable.

As for the hardness question, the leather is a little stiff still, but that is coming along. It is more that the seat bolster is a little into my left hip and thigh unless I consciously pull my leg in a little. Otherwise I agree that in general our seats are very well built and very supportive. I guess I would just like a little more thigh width. I am kind of used to that in sports cars for me, since I am about 6' 3' and 245. Just looking for perfection! I could live with it of course.

I think I will get a better idea when I go down to Sharks in the mountains in June. That is about a 6 and 1/2 hour trip. Maybe I will see some good ideas down there as well.

thanks again for the input!

Problem is now resolved......just picked up a complete leather interior except for rear quarters for a very good deal. Made by Classic 9.

So everything will be recovered soon!
