Anyone want to trade a sushi dinner for some elbow grease?

I have received my GT3 seats for several weeks. I havent had the motivation to take the packaging apart and install them. I also do not have any tools.

I am willing to take someone to sushi (Not Sushi Boy) if they are willing to help me install these things.

Tonight would be great, afternoon weekends are ok too.

I am near Schaumburg.

You should look into these people called mechanics. However they don't accept Sushi as payment.

I know. I thought that this would be a good way to meet a local 6speeder.

I had my installer do it while my sound system was being installed. You would definitely need 2 or more person for this job because stock seats are so freaking heavy. Here is my post of the seats installed.

Thomas:

Hows it going? Car is running fine although I am getting used to the speed. Looking into some other mods (20g) maybe. Im not trying to break any speed records, just want to dust a few ZR1's out here. Dude come out to Chitown man. Well light this town on fire, LA style!

Piece of cake I got the tools. Do you have threadlocker, Zipties and the torque specs for the bolts(I can try to look them up if you don't)?

May be too late, but here is a link that actually works describing the install:

I did it myself. Stock seats are heavy, but not so heavy that one person can't do it.
