New Hawks seat covers

Just got my new hawks 3rd gen seat covers installed as well as some new black carpet and recovered inserts on the doors. I like the product, it is good quality, super comfortable and I think it looks sweet.

Very nice, I can appreciate how hard it is to keep white interior looking nice.

Sweet vert interior, what year is your bird and how much do those kits run? Did you do the install?

mine is a 2000, the seat covers are 399, I paid extra for some material for the door panels. I had a local shop do the the work, they charged $450 for the install and to do the door panels. there are others on this site that did the install themselves but I'm not that skilled so I was ok with paying

That price isn't bad at all. I really like my seat, so I don't want to replace it, just recover it one day when the time comes that it needs it.

yeah installing them is kind of a PITA. i paid about the same but the guy only did my front seats and the sewing of the side bolster plastic. i installed the rear seat upholstery myself.

Does GM still make OE leather seats/covers for these cars?

I doubt it. I know the seat plastics are discontinued (side bolsters) which is why if you want to keep them with the hawks kit you have to reuse your old ones which involves cutting them off the old seat upholstery and sewing them into the new ones.
