i had kevin at kirkey do them. i dont think they do this type of stuff on a normal basis. i almost was going to beg, but he agreed before i had to.
local shops didnt want to mess with them, because they didnt have a pattern for them. if i would have had them done local, i could have prolly got a lil more of a factory look to them, but the cost would not have been worth it.
for talking over the phone and sending a guy a few pics of a stock seat, it worked out well.
the material is a new air knit. it breathes better than the std tweed, so im hoping it wont be so hot in the summer.
with the factory leather seats, i had about had it with them in hot weather.
no a/c, they werent friendly.
thanks for the comments!!!

in the 3rd gens, you gotta have it to help hold the headliner up.
