cloth to leather is it heard of to go from cloth interior to leather and if so where about to fet the supplies also if not anyone no of any nice seat covers to hide the ugly cloth thanks
hawksthirdgenparts.com -they sell very nice covers.
i just made the opposite switch in my camaro. went from leather to cloth, and i freaking LOVE it. so much more comfortable. the main reason though was that my leather was in such bad condition, and i got a great set for cheap from a friend parting out his 96

I too love my new cloth seats > my t/a leather seats... but leather ain't too bad ... it's definitely better looking. But I always hated those extremes...where on a hot day you can barely sit in ur car and on a cold day you're hugged by frozen leather.
Are you talking about completely changing the seats or just replacing the covers?
To remove the seats, there are like 4 bolts each, and they're pretty easy to take out. Hawk's sells leather fitted seat covers, and you can get them on eBay. It would probably be cheaper for used leather seats if you can find some...

I also made the switch from leather seats to cloth. They are more comfortable and do not tend to wear out as fast. The cloth seats hold their shape longer and do not flatten out like the leather seats do. I do not have the leather cracking issue any more. I no longer stick to the seats in the summer time.

As nice as leather seats are I find that cloth seats are more practical for the reasons stated above. One bennefit of cloth is that is cheaper to replace/repair than leather.
