February 2, 201214 yr comment_581747 Just wondering if anyone knows what these seats are out of?? Bought them off a mate for $50, proper leather, has TURBO stamped across the back of the seat but you can't see it in the pics, has heaps of adjustments for the front of the base, lower back, side flap bits etc Two of the bolts line up for the ke70, but shouldn't be hard to make some brackets to bolt it in. Their pretty worn though, through the grey coating over the leather and a lot of cracks leaving the leather exposed. Anyone know of something i can do to help them look a little better? I've heard try boot polish but i'm not so sure yet. Cheers Report

February 2, 201214 yr Author comment_581760 I know, i love them! Look like they should be found in the Back to the future Delorean. Its just the cracking and poorly maintained leather :glare: And as good as it would be, i can't get reupholstering or anything because of the price Report
February 2, 201214 yr comment_581762 You can get repair kits online. Never used them but they are out there. Report
February 2, 201214 yr comment_581764 Theyre out of a little car like a Sherpa or a city or similar. Can't remember which. Report
February 2, 201214 yr comment_581776 I thought they looked like early GTi seats. They're pretty cool either way Report
February 2, 201214 yr comment_581801 Definitely import kei. Nothing of that size was ever sold with leather trim or adjustability in this country Report
February 2, 201214 yr comment_581814 They're actually Mitsubishi Starion seats. Sold in Australia in the early/mid 80's for those unsure of Mitsubishi history Report
February 2, 201214 yr comment_581820 Ahhh of course, I knew I'd seen them. Starions were a pretty high trim spec. Some kei cars have cool looking seats like this too. I would say 50 bucks was a steal starion gear is hard to find. Report
February 3, 201214 yr Author comment_581847 Ahhhhh okay yeah i just checked on google, they look the same. Very nice little compact seat, i got one almost completely bolted up this morning and there's a heap more room, but it also makes me feel like i'm sitting in a Lotus or something haha. Cheers! Report
