Default Trans AM Replacement Seat cover Pictures Please

I am looking to get leather or possibly vinyl seat covers for my 02 Trans AM. I checked out leatherseats.com, classicindustries.com, hawksthirdgen.com just to name a few. Has anyone else bought covers from any of the companies, and if you could post pictures that would be great.

I can tell you that you won't go wrong with Hawk's seat covers. The vinyl is more comfortable than stock leather, it holds up better, doesnt get as hot or cold as leather...the list goes on. And that's just the product....the service you will get through Hawk's is second to none. I am 150% satisfied with my covers. This was the first product I bought from them, and even though they are almost an hour from me....I always make the drive out there if I want to buy something instead of having Bruce ship it to me, that's how good Hawk's has been to me!

Heres the few pics I have...

Check on ebay under "Firebird seat covers". There is a vendor from Cali that I have had positive dealings with recently who sells a variety of f-body covers some that are leather as well.

Not-so-awesome prices too! Theres no better way to spend $400 towards your interior than to get the covers from Hawks. They are the SAME THING that other people try to sell for $600+.

this is the $400 set from hawks 3rd gen. I had to have the side bolsters sewn into the new upholstery since the plastic pieces are discontinued from GM. I also bought a new upper seat pad for my drivers seat for $37 from gm parts direct but that has since been discontinued i think.

I agree, though kinda pricey. Here's mine with Katzkin dark graphite replacing stock cloth on Formula seats (non-articulating buckets)

Super Bat- Who have you heard this negative feedback from? I used this vendor LAST MONTH because of his 100% feedback rating on Ebay- and talked directly to Robert. He packed the stuff EXTREMELY well, shipped it via USPS (my request to avoid cross border piracy by UPS etc) and even REFUNDED the difference from the estimated shipping and actual shipping cost as promised! Granted, Ebay ratings are what they are and dealing with strangers is always risky. I will say again, my PERSONAL, recent experience was positive and I would not hesitate to use him again in the future - at my peril, I guess.

I used Katzkin (from Autoleathers.com) a few years back. Very good quality. Not cheap, but very good.





I would do it again (though I wouldn't chose orange inserts next time! ).

Never said Katskinz was cheap but I know they will custom make your covers about a zillion different ways and the sets I have seen have been top notch and fit very well.....
