I'm very angry with fedex ground. Both friday AND saturday it said the stuff was out for delivery, but nothing came. Now today it doesn't say anything. I hope they're not sending it back without any delivery attemps (there was no note). I tried to call and even drive to the warehouse, but they close at noon seems like. I don't know what to do.

Hmmm. Doubt they will send it back.....They must attempt 3 deliveries on seperate dates and also hold at the depot for one usually 1 week before sending back....

Well they finally made delivery attempt, but I was at work. So now I have to wait 2 days to pick them up in person. Fedex really sucks.

On the contrary to what you say, Fed Ex is far more reliable than UPS in daily dealings. Hence, why we use Fed Ex for 90% of our shipments.

Well just the way their system works...you have to wait til they deliver 3 times before you can pick up. So something I was supposed to get last friday I probably won't have til a week later. With ups, I could go pick up the same day with no problems. Oh well.

Heh they came back tonight. Hopefully I get some time to put em in this week. They look nice

sorry in advance for the OT
is it really true? 'cause the UPS tracking thing is so much better i think and UPS seem to have more locations where u can pick up. as least in the nor cal area.

and yeah, gearbox, post up the review when u installed them

Well I got em installed in a couple hours. The only thing is they're slightly tilted toward the middle of the car. Don't know if that's normal. There was almost no room and I had to force em on (seatbelt assembly barely cleared the console). I'll write a full review but overall I'm very happy with em! Thanks again Dezod.

ib2ez2 is an unknown quantity at this point
how much extra is it for the wide version for the A4? And this may sound stupid , but can you get the passenger regular version and the driver the wide version?

Thanks

You should get sparcos. They are so much nicer looking in terms of design. I've seen them in person and it's a great seat. It doesn't wear down fast either.

Exactly. I can't even stress enough how much I love my Sparcos....


I can not get a decent price on a set of Recaros for just one order....Sorry.

WOW. You may want to look into the wide version of the A4 or CR1.

CC or MO will work

That is fine I'll honor the pricing on the 19th.

Harnesses are not included in the price. They are additional.

No, wider are 15% more of the retail version of the seat.

i.e.-The wide version of the A4 is $368 & the regular is $320.


The GB price for the pair of A4 w/ everything is $860. These may be a snug fit in the Civ.
