hey im interested in getting some racing buckets for my baja so they wrap around a bit better.

i know there are places that strip imported ricers to turn them back to stock for resale.

anyone know of places that sell seats off after they have been stripped.

preferable sunshine coast brissy gold coast area.

you'll need recliners for the bug otherwise the backseat is illegal, also it makes getting things in and out of behind the seat a real pain in the backside.

I think alot of people tend to hang on to fixed back seats and moce them car to car. I move mine.
