Glad you got it built back up. How odd. Could the exhaust have moved? 

Engine mounts ok?

What a bargain! 

Be careful regarding air bag wiring though as connectors can vary. 

As such, if conne tors are different the easiest option is to change the airbags abs wiring from your current seats to the new ones believe it or not.

Yea it's fine to sell on here. I'd recommend doing a separate post under the for sale section. 

Guessing you got your new seats installed ok?
