Default are these seats real??

hey all i was looking at these seats but they dont look the same as others ive seen posted on here, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...id=p2761.l1259 the ones ive seen are black on the back, these have leather wrapped all the way around. also, they are listed as manual... from a touring.., but i thought they all were automatic and powered? please correct me if im wrong? also, i asked if they are covers and he said no, that they were oem and say 'nissan' and 'nismo' on the seats. why would the seats say nismo? just trying to get to the bottom of this hope someone can help, thanks!

I dont know why they would say nismo on them. I thought the nismo only came in cloth. They look like touring seats, but I'm not sure if all the touring seats were powered.

I agree w Tac. The pricing is off for non-electric seats too. These look like
re-covered enthusiast/track cloth seats. Leather might be good quality.
Might as well locate some oe electric/leather seats from an '03+. Should be
able to find them at roughly the same price, maybe $100-$200 more in perfect
condition.

In general if you find yourself asking if something is real/authentic, it is not.
