I'm almost stateside (still in the UK), but the box was delivered and my buddies neighbor put it inside because his cancer went to his spine and he went to hospice (reason for the trip). I'll post the pictures as soon as can get his stuff settled.

Thanks again to X5chemist, who by the way is getting a haji sampler in the mail.... It doesn't tick.

Prayers for your friend. I know the feeling of having someone on hospice care.

The seats will probably need some good leather cleaning. The seller did hold up his end of communications. He discounted one seat on shipping. Let me know how they look so I can leave a review.

Sorry for the long wait, I hit the ground running and have been packing up the place and making sure nothing untoward gets delivered to his relatives.

Here's a set of pictures of the seats (I'll clean them in Saudi) I can't wait to get these in and replace my roached seats. I'll try to check in but I have to hit the tax attorney's office in Florida this Thursday, so who knows what that trip will bring...

If you guy's need something from Haji land let me know!

Yeah! Better than the current installed seats! Ya need to see those pics too.

Do you plan to swap the left and right seats? The outer panels do look a little worn. Do you need to take any good leather cleaner?
Glad we could work quickly to get them to you. It was easy since they were in Texas.

Safe travels!

I'd like to say it was caused by my steel balls, but it's most likely my old fat ass...
