I did all my seats, they came cloth so I bought some high quality leather and redid all of them. Take the seats out and you'll see how easy it is.

I spent about $1,000.00 but I bought a high quality leather. The crap GM puts in their car's isn't worth a dime in my mind. I wanted to help build my interior to something I could be proud of and drive across the country in comfort and style.

Yes I did the doors as well but I later bought door panels from a 2002 Trans Am so I no longer have them. I've also since gotten rid of the back seats alltogether.
Here's some pictures of the front seats though. You'll notice I went with the LT1 style pattern as I think it looks better.
I've had the seats for a couple years and they still look brand new with not signs of wear like the stock leather.
