Time for an update I guess. Not lots of stuff has happened since I like to drive the car the few months of summer we get here. Swapped the header anyways.

maxwellmercer: You are correct. But not "suuuper high", just "high". EP3 seats and EG6 isn't the best combo if you are over 1,75m. Will get some red DC2 recaro seats when that comes in the top of the prio list

On those seats did you swap rails from the EG or relocate the mounting points on the EP rails? I ask because I'm planning on putting DC5 seats in my EG. I know they sit high on EG rails (like the EP seats) but I'm thinking if I modify the mounting tab locations instead they should be good.

No, I didn't swap the EG rails. I modified the EP3 rails instead. To me it looked like the outcome would be about the same height and modifying is fun, right? I'd go for DC2 seats instead though bolt on and correct fit!

Yeah but who wants to be like everybody else. Besides I already have the seat pan swap done on the rear and the DC5 seat looks PERFECT back there.

Winter time in sweden = no more driving for 6 months

But that gives a little time to do stuff to the car.

Mounted a EK roof light / air refiner. Yeayea, thats not access to the EG but good luck finding an intact EG one.
