Default classic aero design seats

I ordered my seats some time back and will get them in the next month or so.
I see that they have a new seat design called the aviator which looks a bit nicer and costs a lot more. I still have a chance to change my order.
Do any of you have any experience with the older seat versus the newer one as regards to comfort, looks etc.?
The aviator seat has a built in seat back which leads me to wonder how the get the hinges to line up with my setup. Remember some 7s have a issue with the seat back brace catching the roll bar.
Any comments?

I have had a few e-mails regarding the new seats.
I understand they come with some piano hinge to align with your floor and attach to the seat back, you also attach your seat brace to the back of the seat.

I was ready to order when the question of covering came up. Leather/cloth? Here everybody in the UK say's leathers cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Save your money and buy cloth. I really like the look of the leather seats.

What's the verdict in the US? What do you guy's like?
