Are there anyone else from the members who had experienced the service and craftmanship of Sureseats? Tnx.

Unfortunately, we have not gotten our seatcovers yet. The family thought that if we get the seatcovers, we will rarely see the original seats anymore and sayang naman because it's new. We have the 2.5 GLS variant and the stock seats are just covered with fabric, which on its own looks good already, but I prefer to put a seatcover. As a compromise between the family, we decided to wait a bit more before getting the seatcovers. It's more on the lines of "palumain muna ng konti yung seats bago lagyan ng seatcovers". I hope it makes sense.

But true enough, we'll be getting our seatcovers from Sureseats when the time comes. If we get them, I'll post pics. Now if you get them first, please post pics as well. TIA.

hi bro, i think that wont be a problem- to think that the fabric seats are water resistant! as u mentioned, to "palumain muna ng konti yung seats bago lagyan ng seatcovers" is a matter of streching the fabric just a bit so probably when the seat covers come, it will be a snug fit! Just remember to vacuum all rows to play it safe against any foreign object... especially FOOD! HTH...

natuloy ba ang groupbuy ng seatcover sa seatmate? i badly need a leatherette seatcover. i can't stand the dust accumulated on the fabric. my allergic rhinitis kasi ako.

One of the ULTIMATE ROAD TEST of the MS is the stretch right after the TUNNEL in TUBA, BENGUET and just before you enter the city proper.... Grabe, you can feel the SUPREMACY of the 3.2 engine!!!

!! I tried using the 2H lang, kayang-kaya pa rin!

I also tried the "OFF-ROAD CONDITION" of the ILOCOS SUR HIGHWAYS!!!! Off road talaga and my MS has its own taste of "off-road".....

Etong photo kuha ko kahapon sa may tuba, benguet along the steep stretch you mentioned.

yep, the bridge after that man-made tunnel is awesome! i tested it using 2 cars already- A Grandis and a Lancer EX 2.0 GT. Looking forward to try it this time with the MS!

may i ask... any feel of body roll along the curve?

yes, the picture that Jepoy M. shared is where the GLS SE's rear foglamp will definitely shine!

weather up here in Baguio has been quite bad nowadays...

two days ago, i braved the downpour along shaw to edsa and noticed my windshield fogging outside the mirror. When I stop the wipers, it gets foggy so fast I could not turn wipers off even for a moment.

As i entered the basement parking of Renaissance Hotel in Mkati, i turned off my wipers and ALL my windows got fogged really bad that I had to turn them on again even while parking inside the basement or else I couldn't see anything. I even opened my driver's seat window cause every glass was "perspiring."

The autoclimate settings of the monty is different from my other vehicles. What should be my settings on these a/c knobs? I'm using a GLS SE. Thanks mga ka-club!
