So what do I think? The seats are amazing! I really didn't have huge expectations - I mean, I wanted them to be better than the originals they were replacing, but that was pretty much a given. I figured they'd probably still be kind of saggy and squeaky (after all, they're not new, either) but they are incredibly firm and supportive, and the bolstering is wonderful. Really top quality seats. Even the back seats are super comfy and sporty feeling. Really, I don't think it's impossible to overstate how much of an improvement they are. The fact that they're leather and heated is just icing on the cake. They're in very good cosmetic condition, too. There was a small tear in one of the driver's side bolsters, apparently, which the seller had professionally repaired by an upholstery shop.

The steering wheel is nice - it's not very much smaller, I think only an 1/8" or 1/4" less diameter. I was kind of expecting it to be a little smaller, and with a thicker rim. We'll see how it feels in use, once I get this new battery.

The overall improvement, though - in terms of comfort, smell, aesthetics - I mean, the car is just transformed. I have other stuff planned for this car, but I think getting this piece done is really going to go a long way to keep up my motivation to continue.
