Mine is EB Standard. Was planning to fit semi leather cover. The installers mentioned that they will have to dimantle the seat. I'm worried that it will void the warranty. Any advice? Do they have these accessories and install them at SC?

Any modify on wiring system so all the warranty is void, but proton warranty is quite tricky, sometimes sc will try to deny you from claiming warranty smile.gif

Brought my EB home 3 days ago. Getting to know my new ride. So far so good. A bigger ride than what I'm used to. Noticed some water splashed around the gear (auto) during tinting. Hope it wont cause any problems in the future.

Congrats bro and enjoy your new ride rclxms.gif
