I'm not positive, but I don't think the Euro II's are available with gradation. I believe they only come in black or red, but I could be wrong about this.

I've only had them in the car for 5 days or so, so I'm not sure how hard they'll be to keep clean. I am going to look into the possibility of scotch-guarding them. The material is called buckskin leather. It feels pretty much like suede. I don't think it'll be too bad to deal with.

Yup the only colors available were black and red. They look really nice steve.
In comparison to the brix, they look wayy easier to get into. I miss them already.

How much of a difference over the stockers? The stockers do pretty well for me as I had crappy honda seats in my other cars.

Ha, yeah I guess I never really paid much attention to the hand brake position, but you're right, it does need adjusted.

I believe I read that these seats weigh 40 lbs. Not sure how much the stockers weigh though.

The have quite a bit different feel then the stock seats. I guess whether or not they are better or worse depends on each individual person. They sit a little higher up, but I'm short so I kind of like that, but I can see where some people wouldn't.

Everyone who's sat in them has really loved them. The stock seats are really nice though, so I'd suggest sitting in any seat you are thinking about buying before making the purchase. Seats are too expensive to order something and then not like them.
