[DeTomaso] Will these Recaro Seats fit in a Pantera

The two pair of Tesla "parking" brakes I bought on Ebay were the ones
specified on Pantera Electronics' spec sheet. In my conversation with Jon
Haas, he said to adhere to the specs on the Tesla brakes when ordering them.
When received, I tested both sets. They worked correctly.
IMO, The stock "emergency" brake and the Tesla "parking" brake, from a
practical standpoint, are useful only as a parking brake.
As far as using the "parking" brake, either the stock or Tesla version, in
the rare case brakes were to fail, I would rather rely on downshifting to
slow me down, versus relying on the "parking or emergency" brake to slow me
down...
