Wow, this is awesome, got a question. How hard/expensive would it be to install leather seats instead of my leatherette. Also where could I order the headrests in tan?

nice. and we all thought it can't be done....

I am trying to locate a place to order these parts. Any suggestions? THanks for the help.

I just did this DIY and there is a way to get the black cover off without the dremel... I will post a DIY soon with lots of pics. What this doesn't tell you is that the comfort headrest WILL NOT lay flush with the seat. The comfort headrest WILL sit 2 inches off the sport seat at the fully lowered position.
Very easy DIY
