Thats a great idea! I hate it when you can't wear the seatbelt after you get out on a hill..

I made my LJ more comfy in winter by fitting an LJ80 Stockman heater tap so now I can turn the heater on and off without having to stop and open the bonnet to turn the factory tap on or off..mmm luxury..
I made my LJ more comfy in the wet season by always carrying a raincoat in the car (and thats with the roof on)
I made my LJ more comfy on long trips by putting it on a trailer
Do I need to go on.......fair dinkum guys we are talking about a Sierra!!!!!!! if you want comfy go by a Grand Vitara end of story.

Sort out the odd rattle here, add a bit of padding there and you can end up with a car that you are happy to drive on long trips. It hasn't cost me a whole lot to make my tintop a nice place to be, it's not a nice obviously as my brothers new GV but when we get to the 4x4 park, I'm glad I'm in the Sierra.

Yeah I know what you mean Matfan, I agree a nice set of seats is a great idea all our Suzuki's have aftermarket seats, WRX, Swift, Recaro but to quote Tzar "you can't turn a donkey into a racehorse"

you got rid of the best thing about a coily & replaced it with checker plate.... should have kept the door trims.

those seats look plush, but terribly unsupportive.
