    why not? it takes a bit for that first e mail to come, longer then most sites.


    this site sees way more traffic anyways. same platform.

    Right now, my Grand Prix > his Regal. And I know this because his is parked in my back yard waiting on insurance!

    Haha!!

    I am way jealous of the overall fit and finish on his though. Oh, and the seats. The seats are so much better. If he doesn't start driving it soon, they may come up "missing."

    I got too much respect for grandma's car to cannibalize it in any way. She's safe.

    Did I hear the word Regal? FWIW, Red I fixed ya up. You had it all wrong.

    Howdy new Regal guy. If you think our seats are nice, sit in a 92-99 Bonneville SSEi. Our seats are very very nice.. however I digress. Any questions.. just holler, you have a few Regal guys here to help out. Never trust a GP owner, they think they own sportscars. Being Regal owners we know we have the nice car with power to boot.

    PS.. if you have trouble getting on RegalGS.org, holler and I'll make a call or two.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Sorry for the hijack...

    As a 2000 GP owner, I'm looking for any king of seat upgrade. I understand, the 04+ GP seats are a direct swap (not including some wiring for the seat heaters). Are the Bonneville seats a difficult swap? Would they fit dimensionally? Hitting some JY's this weekend and I'd like to know what my options are.

    Thanks!

    If they were direct bolt in...I'd be rockin some super seats, instead I decided on second prize and lowered the car instead. lol

    PM me your email addy and the user name you used over there. I'll pass it on to the folks over there.
