hey guys. im in a dilemma... i am currently selling all my honda crap to get things to fix and put towards my Talon. im getting rid of a b-series intake mani, and i have on guy offering me two brand new Tenzo R racing Seats. which are about $300 a piece new... and another offering me a JVC indash Touchscreen? i dont know what to choose!! id like both. the picture he sent of the seats i like alot. and i need a new head unit, and always wanted a in-dash screen. which wouldf you choose had the choice?

this is roughly what the seats look like...

Honestly, i would wait for better seats, stock Evo seats, Recaros, Bride, etc.

Personally when it comes to important things like safety, i would get a known brand, and Tenzo R to me, seems more of a knockoff brand...but its your car!

I say pick up the in dash!
 
I'd go with the seats.. or cash to get that car goin..
Once you get a nice exhaust you will rarely turn up the radio..
Or is that just me?
 
no brackets, its coming from a guy off of clubcivic.com the seats are. so they would be civic brackets. i know there not big brand name but i they dont look bad, and they are only seats. and since they retail for about 300 a piece, and im trading a XS power Intake Manifold, seems like a good deal? and i was reall liking the idea of the Radio... but after seeing it? ummmmm i dot really like it... and i do NOT get how its "touchscreen?" it has alot of features ya. but idk really... oh! the price i only found in British pounds.. and its like 169pounds or somewhere in that area.. seems cheap to me.. looks cheap.. but im not for sure yet though.. but so far leaning towards the seats.. how do you think the seats would look in my Black Talon? i dont think the radio would flow well LOL
 
i thought the same thing... he said touchscreen and i thought WAY better... that looks tooo... well CHEAP! haha

oh, and the car does run, and all the money i just got for selling and parting out my civic has paid for the radiator, window, and door handles :) and i have a few other things from the honda yet. so im using them to get more things i want LOL
 
Go with the seats for sure. That head unit looks cheap. I think those seats will look good in your talon. If you dont get them let me know. They will look good in my gsx. HAHA. You will probably enjoy them better then the in-dash. Good luck.
 
You have a non turbo...those seats are way over kill. Unless you need those super tight mad JDM bolsters to hold you tight while your touging. yeah right. Get a good sound system and some oem leather, lower it with nice wheels and call it a day.
 
You could get the seats and trade them for something useful? Racing seats in a car with carpet and headliner is dopey.
 
im not paying for either.. LOL im trading some honda crap i still have. and ya i have a non-turbo, and right now im worried about making it a nice DD. and make it look good in and out. i was thinking about getting them, and re-selling them. but i still think im going to go with the seat. the stereo looks to cheap
 
I'd go with the seats. I think you have a better chance of running into a good deal (in the future) with the head unit, again. Not so much with the seats.
