Are These 1980 Parts?
Hey everyone, I've got a 1980 RX-7 and two things about the car have struck me as curious since I've had it.
1: I've got a digital clock in the instrument cluster.
2: I've got rear seats.
Anyone know whether these two were available for the 1980 model year?

I didn't think that any RX-7s sold in North America had rear seats installed from the factory. There's quite a few floating around with JDM interiors though. The clock was an available item in '80, IIRC.

Probably fairly easily, although i believe there is an issue with the sa having a hump or something that is not present on the fb.
Quick search will turn up an answer for you.

I read somewhere that the +2 was done in small numbers to comply with some silly federal law dealing with import restrictions. It was pretty rare. I saw one on an 84 GSL-SE that was clearly factory.

The included picture should be showing the brace I think you're speaking of. The underside of the seats curve with it. I've had a few people say it might be a custom made seat, and others say it came out of a newer RX-7.
