Id like to do some interior mods to the Q once I get the driveshaft replaced.. pretty much the car is gonna be perfect mechanically, and I am not so picky about the paint since it looks pretty good anyway..

One thing I considered would be to convert into a modified shamu interior.... have 90-93 shamu seats, 2 tone door panels, and everything else is black... Black carpet, headliner, rear shelf, sunvisors and so on...

Another idea would be just to have 9093 seats color matched to my interior color already... So id have the hand of God seats in a 94 interior...

i agree with jesda. Light colored seats in a dark interior always looks good.

The new Z seats are kinda nice, but theyre not really luxury car-ish...

I just want them to be more comfortable on long road trips.. These are OK, but not the best.....

I want something thats somewhat supportive, but something i can sink into and be uber comfy...

Yes, according to Mr. Wes, the 90-93 are "Hand of God" that you sit in, and the 94-96 you sit on.

Actually the 90-92 are the same, 93 is same design but softer leather and rear pocket on front sats, then the 94-96, then the Q41.

Members can fit [4 bolts-8 max] and rewire most seats to a 90-93Q .......BMW, MB, Caddy etc

Hmmmmm!!!!

Thats got me thinking..... I suppose worse case you could wire them up to the stock frames...

The only thing you run into is the rear seats... Would others fit? not likely?
