      Believe me, it took a lot of searching. The fellow had gone to England and bought back quite a bit that he found there. He did his car, I bought the rest. It wasn't cheap, but got enough to do 2 cars. The customer I'm doing the work for is paying me enough to recover the cost for the lot!

          A thread on the M3 E30 SIG says it can still be tracked down for $100 a yard through the dealer. I'm looking into that now (I know....greedy). No luck with my dealer, but I
          m trying other avenues...

                The stock front EVO seats were SRD's. I think the had M cloth in the centers like those in the pic. Correct me if im wrong.

                            Cecotto and Ravaglia ltd editions used the stock seats with the cloth inserts, as I've done up. The Evo III came with SRDs with the cloth centers. You can see some good examples on www.s14motorsport.de

                              Ahhhh, i did not know that. Are those cars rare-er than the Evo III's?
