people steal these seats they are so comfortable. why not do a leather recover? takes about a day a chair and around $800.

I think the OEM seats are great, but I have a crush on bride buckets, so just pick what you want!

I've been asking myself the same question. I'm not sure if I should redo my stockers or go aftermarket

It probably depends on your ultimate goals. Go OEM or re-do if you think you might sell your S one day. Non OEM seats could be a hard sell. Most buyers are looking for unmolested cars.
