how comfortable are those ?

seams like a good way to get rid of the cloth front , and rubber rear

i find them quite comfortable (although i really had no complaints about the g8 seats i had in before)

the bolsters are very pronounced, which some may find uncomfortable, but the foams are pretty soft, also about 1/4" taller than g8 foams

I'd assume the seat foams would have been shipped from Australia as they are out of a Holden Clubsport.

I bought them from inchargeauto in aus (http://inchargeautomotive.com.au" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

I found them through ebay.au, and asked them about making me a set of custom gts seats that look like the g8 seats (so i wouldn't have to replace my perfect backseat cover, and becasue i like the red)
