Default New Seats

So I finally got around to getting new seats since the ones the car had were starting to tare in places and I wanted more bolstering from the seast soooooooo three hundred n sixy bucks on ebay later I have these: (56K warning, these pics are large but the camera phone quality isn't quite there [&:] )

Freshly installed- you can also see my carbon fiber door inserts too

Only major problems I had was the bracket adaptors had to be adjusted to fit to the sliders on the seats and the angle of the seat belt buckle lock assembly (not sure of correct name). But after all the work (took my five hours in friday to do one seat cause I didn't have any working ratches and so forth....) they're well worth the effort and they feel sooooooooo much better. I barely slide around in them where as before I'd slide way before the car would start getting unstable (now it's switched )

Does it have like a recline lever? If you had a coupe would it be a major hassle to get people in the back seat with them?
