looks good except for one thing. i never liked the t/a seats with the replacement leather kits that don't retain the stock accordian pieces. i had mine reupholstered a few years ago with the hawks kit and paid a shop to sew the old plastics onto the new leather. they look kind of unfinished without it imo.
my seats right after recovery. btw if anyone needs a pic of a certain step, i have a bunch of in progress pics on my photobucket from when i did them. just ask and i might have what you need.

So how did you order these? I checked the Classic Industries site and did not see seat covers for our year cars.
Do you know if they do custom colors, or only stock replacement? I really like these, how is the quality? Let me know because I want to order some

This is a replacement for a 95-96 seat. That was the only year it was offered in red. The seat bottoms are different as are the headrests. look up seats for a 96 model and they will show red. Here is the part number I used. The material is not leather, it is Hampton Vinyl, it has a pretty thick foam backing and is very supple and comfortable. It will shock the **** out of you. I did get flamed a little for it being vinyl and not leather but I have yet to see anyone replace their set with a real leather one. That would cost at least $1000

FWIW i think the hampton vinyl feels more like soft leather than the "real" GM leather did. i mean compared to like a bmw or something, the hampton vinyl feels more like that than the hard GM stuff
no, they wont. the older seats have a movable ******* rest on them... 97 up, dont.. thats why i bought leather from a 96 model then ordered the red replacement for that year. pm me with your contact info if you want and ill help you as much as i can, this takes too long...
