hi guys, just wondering, are the vt and vx calais rear seats the same? is it just the backrest part of the seat that differs compared to an executive rear seat, or does the actual base cushion bit differ too. also, if anyone has any pictures of either vt or vx calais rear seat, that would be great. im just looking to upgrade the rear seat in the S to something a bit classier looking, and more comfy. Thanks, ant.
The VT/VX Calais rear seats have head restraints [which the execs don't - if my memory serves me].
The padding/shaping and the material finish is different too.
Below is a pic of the the VT1 Calais velour rear seats - out of the car obviously so alignment between squabs and ski port do not line up. There were two seat colours - one bluish [as shown] and the other brownish.

If you are looking to upgrade you would need to get the whole set to get matching appearances.
In addition [shameless plug] I have full set of VT1 Calais 8 way electric front seats, rear seats [as shown] and door inserts for sale. See here. [URL=http://www.ls1.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=37386[/URL]
