Lightbulb Performance w/ Leather?

Hey All. Here's my thoughts. I want to get the Touring model however I dont want the shitty bose stereo, so basically I just want the touring so I can get the leather seats. Is it possible to get the Performance model and upgrade to leather seats? If so how much do you think? Also, what other differences are there between the performance and the touring that I may have to pay for to upgrade?

Yes, you can add leather seats for the Performance. I would think after market would offer better selection and lower price. Search here for many posts on leather. Go to Nissan site to research difference between Perf & Touring.

Performance does not have: power seats, leather, heated seats, 6CD Bose. But as the Rat said; check the Nissan site.

Now I can't say that this system is the best in the world, but frankly I'm pretty happy with it. It's bassy and has good treble, Of course I'm not trying to shake some one's colon loose though either, but i do however like to blast it, and it sounds pretty damn good to me. If anything in the future I'd change out the head unit, just so I can have a really pretty Pioneer that looks nice. I've yet to find a HU though that will take up the same amount of space as the stock. I don't want all this extra space from a kit.

DIN stands for some German standards organization. When it's applied to HUs, a DIN represents the size (2.11 inches by 7.2 inches) of an HU like you would see at the store. A 2 DIN HU is basically twice as tall. Crutchfield is a good place to look to get a better idea of what I'm talking about.

I added leather to my performance model for $1400. I also had heated seats installed so if you just wanted leather you should be able to get them for around $700-$800.
