Hey CTmandu,

What year Perlude and Porsche will work? Also, how about seatbelts?
Did you stay with the stock, or use the belts from the seat donner car?

Thanks! 8)

What prelude seats are those, and what kind of mods did it take to use them? Can you add a middle seatbelt pretty easy if you have a bench seat?

I just added a middle seatbelt for my temporary bench seat. It was extremely easy. I just shared the driver-side, and passenger side seat mounts. It works great, though I try not to take more than one person.... lol just a little packed!

Hope this helps.

I have bucket seats out of a Geo Storm GSI. I am using the stock LUV seat belts.
