Default OEM Seat Cover

My driver's side seat is in need of a new top and bottom cover. It's the "leather" that came on the Camaros. Cheapest I've been able to find online is around $400. Has anyone purchased new seat covers for cheaper?? Thanks!

Nope - you can still get them through GM, top and bottom sections, but last time i checked they were about 200/each my cost.

Fun times.

Has anyone checked on the rear bottoms? Would you have to replace everything or what?

Sheeesh....I guess I was hoping that they would be a bit cheaper. Mine are starting to look so shabby that I really don't think I'll have a choice but to pony up the $400 and get them......good thing its just the one seat.

I need new covers also except for both front seat's
where did you find them for $400???
The high cost of oem seat covers has me thinking about just putting synth leather aftermarket race seats in my car.

Has anyone found maybe a OEM looking seat cover with a better leather feel? I would pay for that.

If you're gonna spend that much, just check out autoleathers.com, leatherseats.com, or katzkin.com and put together full custom leather seats instead.
Won't be much more money, probably around $750 or so for ALL the seats.
