the NAPA RED is as close as you can get to SPORT RED METALLIC. It is very close. Only difference is that the spray is a shade darker and missing the metallic.

The red looks awesome!!!!!!!!!!! I need to do some touching up on the Graphite. (light in a few spots)

Hey CJ. I have only painted my pass seat (yesterday). It is pretty stiff. Does the fabric soften up after the seat has been used a few times? No one has sat in mine yet.

Reguarding the starting of a vehicle while the seat is unplugged: I started and drove my car a few miles (going to napa for more paint) with my seat removed. Nothing went wrong. airbags didnt deploy. Its safe. You get a message that says SERVICE AIR BAG that goes away when you plug the seat back in.

never herd of a warning before. I've installed remotestarts for about 2 years now and i've always been told when I reinstall anything having to deal with an airbag, MAKE SURE THE KEY IS OFF. Can't set it off if it is not armmed.

A word to Nissan owners: Don't do what he did, unless you want your SRS light to stay lit until your next servicing at the dealership.

or you take a trip to autozone and have the code cleared or you unplug the battery for 10 min, but yeah there are only so many ways to get rid of that light, tokyo i know that this will work in a sentra 01-05 for that is what i had before getting my HHR.
