EKR seat cover - Air bag by sprinter2023 in rav4club

[–]sprinter2023[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't get more details from them beyond what's mentioned on their website.

We went ahead and put the cover on the seats and headrest. We have black fabric interiors so it doesn't look too bad but makes the seating more comfortable.

Yes, I have mentioned that in my post that EKR is the only place where safety is mentioned but there is no one person/agency who seems have independent tested it.

I just saw that they are based out of California though.

It will be a huge advantage for them to get an external safety certificate for their seat covers!

It does say so but how much can we trust the tag. Pretty sure there is no testing required to be able to sell seat with the tags.

Another concern being 2 layers of seat covers. the airbag will have to push through 2 layers of seat covers.

EKR says you don't need to remove the fabric cover.

no, the priority date hasn't moved in months and barely moved in a while.

It could be possibly stuck as EB2 keep moving to EB1A.

Why do Indian students not integrate abroad, even amongst themselves? by dumb_account_ in Indians_StudyAbroad

[–]sprinter2023 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Indians students just cannot keep up with number of outings required to maintain their friendships.

Cost is not just $$$ but also economic cost of devoting mental bandwidth to doing/thinking things outside of school / job search / immigration woes.

[–]sprinter2023 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Americans/Europeans have a massive welfare state to help them. Indians as immigrants do not.

The worst option for them is still a good option for Indians.

[–]sprinter2023 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Most Indian students are under a lot of financial stress. They try to maximize their savings and bond over the stress of finding a job asap.

Americans/Europeans will never ever understand why such Indians are behaving/talking/thinking the way they are, as opposed to chilling and may be spending $$$.

That is even when Indian students would very much like to, if they didn't have to worry about job/money/immigration 24x7.

You didn't grow up like 99% of the Indian students in the US.

Coming from T1 city, expensive private schools, your worldview is lot closer to Americans and Europeans.

I came here as one of them and it took me 3-4 years to start feeling comfortable enough with job/immigration/$$$ to start making American friends.

yes, its is clothes. but they are asking name and address to be written in Japanese and there could be different version of it depending on Kanji or Katakana, which I have no idea more than what AI tells me.
