Subject:Sparco seats just installed, now I need a new windshield

Well gang,

I had a set of Sparco super sport seats put in the rocket today. ( 5 hour
install) The whole endeavor was quite tough. We used the universal sliders
provided by Sparco. Had to make a custom "runners" that bolted to the stock
seat mount points and bolted the sliders to this unit. Very tight fit. If I
had to do it again, I would go with the star. It is sold as solution for
"smaller" cars.........

Just had to push it, eh ??

The big ooops! of the day.......while pitching the seat forward to try and
tighten down the back bolts......


crack!

broke the windshield.

The shop that put in was very apologetic and shut me up by not charging me
for the labor for the installation and throwing in a really nice JL audio
sub...(earth shaking)...

Now I gotta get the glass fixed........

I will tel ya what, these seats are worth the spider web on the passenger
side......OH MY GOD!! very comfy...........

So now I have a pair of seats with built in massage  (sub) and a spider
embedded in my windshield.....insurance is a beautiful thing...

Geezer

team crack
