Default Aftermarket Leather Seat Covers

My white leather in the 30Th trans am looks pretty rough, I was wondering what I could get for reupholstering? Which leather covers look the most like stock? best quality? website to get them? thanks.

I used them and they aren't the same quality of GM's, they're MUCH better.

Sorry these aren't the best pictures but here they are in my '94. You can get two tone for no extra cost, I just wanted the all black look.

Yes. See pics thru link in sig...

the autoleathers stuff is also much better than GM quality...I wonder if leatherseats & autoleathers are both just Katzkins resellers (I know autoleathers is)...

I picked it up on a group purchase about 2 years back, and I want to say it was around $750 or so. I *think*, without the GP, it would be more like $1G. Also, I think both sites mentioned here have on-line pricing guides that you could check...
peace...

LeatherSeats.com also comes with door panels but in the pictures they aren't in because I bought TA door panels and put those in.

I paid just over $800 with no GP and that was including the shift boot.

Little info on aftermarket leather from either company...

The autoleather is really katzin which is nationally know and leatherseats.com is well know via forums like this...

for Autoleather you won't get the warr. if you install yourself... They preferr you have it installed by a professional which means professional cost.....

Leatherseats.com comes with a 3 year warr. regardless of who installs. Also their kits is alot cheaper than autoleathers kit... I'm getting mine from leatherseats.com sometime in the near future... but I need some bling bling on my wheels....


PS. I bought some 30th ann seats (whiteleather) for a t/a and was goign to replace the leather and then decided just to sell teh seats.. but one thing I noticed when i took some of the leather off one day is that the leather the factory uses is very very CHEAP!!!! actually teh only parts that were actually leather was the parts where you sit.. everything else was PLASTIC!!!! WTF... GM wants like $800 for one seat!!!!!!!!

just my .02
