What seats specifically are you considering? I need to get some very soon because my driving style on the windy commute is doing a number on my back with the stock seats, lol. Replacing the battery sounds like a good idea...what are the weight savings / is there a model you're considering?
seats, depends on the weight and how hard it is to get into these Status seats

I'd get them in black leather with tan stitching, diamond pattern stitching on the inside areas.

or recaro pole positon or some lightweight sparco/recaro/momo seat and have it re-uphostered in leather

for battery, I'd go with the brand that makes the batteries for Braille, Deka. Maybe the 12lbs model
