new seats coming for my 88 900T

Well after procrastinating too long and suffering pain from worn out sagging seats in my 88 900T, I ordered new ones. Sparco Milanos in black leather. They will be worth more than the rest of the car, but I'll be able to move them to the next vehicle when my Saab dies of old age someday. Yeh, I know there is a cheap kit to restring the Saab seats, and my intrax/bilstein suspension makes the ride less smooth than necessary, and there are a lot of frost heaves that would bend Viggen wheels in a matter of minutes. But I messed up my back a year and a half ago, and it's doing pretty well now. As a result of that experience, comfort is a HUGE priority right up there along with sportiness and safety. The milanos remind me of a cross between Viggen seats and classic Saab seats and are probably better made than either. Viggen seats are awesome by the way.
I contacted three places about getting the seats, and none had any or could get any right away in leather. All sold at retail prices. I ended up ordering anyways, and they say it could be up to 8 weeks before they arrive. I should have ordered them a couple of months ago, but I wanted to pay off a few other things first. Looks like demand is exceeding supply for these things. Sparco dealers can special order mounting hardware for our Saabs too.
