If you wanna crush in an accident by all means go with a replica seat.

One can do whatever they want with their own car. That being said just to be clear, when an enthusiasts see's your car and the seats you have they don't think it's cool, they think what a cheap bastard who cares more about looking right than being right. I sure hope they are comfortable, there is a reason soob has 5 star side impact. With all the non car insurance having light runners in oakland you better think twice!

I've seen that same exact screen! Changed plugs, swapped out a coil pack and have never seen it since.
