No hard feelings towards you at all. Frankly, the price we agreed to is indicitive of the value of the top so I don't feel ripped off at all.   I'm just having some trouble with it and I was wondering if you had the same trouble, and if so, what you ahd done that helped or hurt. That's all. I'll try the silicone solution and see how it goes.
#3866 of 4340 Seat covers by thel Nov 28, 2004 (9:44 am)
Anyone had good luck with any cheapo seat covers? I'm thinking sub $40-50 range. Any more and I'll just take the time to reupholster them myself. My seats have some rips in them in of all places the very tops of the head rests.

Did you roll it at an autocross? :o)   -juice
#3868 of 4340 I don't autocross by thel Nov 29, 2004 (7:44 am)
Nowhere around here has events...that I know of anyway. Honestly, I bought the car with the headrests ripped...really the only rough part of the interior. I have no idea how it happened to either one of them, much less both of them.

I knew that, I was just teasing.   I wonder if you could get them reupholstered for cheap. Leather runs $900 for 5 seaters, so a 2 seater should run maybe $400-500. For cloth it should cost even less.   Look in your phone book under Auto - Upholstery. Call them and ask.   -juice

Hi. Can someone email me a couple of Miata only websites/forums? I've googled for some and can't find any. tobymplsmn.rr.com   Thanks!
#3871 of 4340 Oh... MS Miatas by wayde Nov 29, 2004 (1:15 pm)
In the Minneapolis area are discounted 5500-6000$ now, just an fyi.

LOL...I know, I know.   My Dad ued to own an upholstery shop with my grandparents before it burned down when I was in high school so if I go all out and reupholster the seats, I'll probably do it myself (ourselves:).   What I'd really like to do is the put some 01+ seats in there...those are comfy. The NA seats are a bit small...if they were maybe 10-15% bigger they would be much better.
#3873 of 4340 MSM's by thel Nov 29, 2004 (5:15 pm)
I've heard of people across the country seeing ads for as much as $7k off of sticker for the 04 MSM from a Miata website which shall remain unnamed since I got sent to my room the last time I mentioned it...although a couple of dozen posts back I seem to recal seeing it mentioned.

Maybe check a junk yard?   A place in Bridgeport, CT, had a wrecked Miata and I got all kinds of knick-knakcs off of it. I mean little latches and stuff that had broken on mine for the hood prop rod, the center console latch, stuff like that.   You might get lucky, who knows?   -juice
