Hawk's Third Gen Online. You can find good replacemtents there. There should be posts on this forum with pics of people who have used them before.

Hey there teamfbody.
I bought some ebay seatcovers from a reputable vendor. I will have pics to post soon of the install / finished product.

6LE is a vendor here and had a thread for his seatcovers. They look great too!

I will say this: The install is harder than it sounds. It's not the hardest thing I've done - but there were some frustrating moments and such. My factory cover seat bottoms were glued to the foam from the factory - and removing them was difficult to do without taking too much seat foam with it. Used an box cutter to slice it.
That's one of many things that came up.

Says the man with Hulk's red seats in his car

Don't get mad Lee, we can plasti-dip your back seats red to match

Regardless, our covers are made so you can reattach your factory ribs if you want to, nothing is stopping you...

To the OP, we sell them and so does Hawk's.

For the guy wanting just one, you should go to a local upholster. No one (like us I mean) will ever sell you just one because there's no way to guarantee it will match the color of the other three without the car...

6LE, do you make the 93-96 style black leather for Camaro's? Everything I see looks like 97+

I only say that because when I asked about the ribs, Sommer gave me his "what, are you ******* stupid?" look and said "why would you want the ribs" like I was a ******* dumbass for even thinking the ribs looked good, or that ANYBODY would want them...

So there. Good to know you actually do make it so they can reattach the ribs.

lol, sorry if I gave you that look, Lee. I actually like the ribs. But maybe you might of looked at me while I was watching one of your crazy sci-fi shows, and got the wrong look, lol.

But yes, we can attach the ribs if wanted, we just need them before we make the seats, since they are stitched to the beat backing.
