Aftermarket seats? Well I am still looking for an LS1 with low miles and for a good price and have found one that caught my eye for a good price. The only down side is that the car does not have leather seats. This wouldn't be as much of a problem if the cloth seats in the F-Bodies weren't the biggest pieces of crap in the world...
So, anybody know of a place where I can get aftermarket seats? I would prefer leather but cloth ones would be acceptable if the quality was good. I also want something designed for the F-bodies and not something that will have to be fabricated to fit properly in the car... I would like not to have to get Recaro's or some other type of seat featured in stock Honda Civics through 'tardland, but I can't stand the look and feel of the stock cloth seats...
Anybody have any ideas? Price isn't too much of a concern, just want something that will fit properly and not require too much fabrication.

I have not heard or seen any aftermarket seat made for the f-bodies. I have a pair of MOMO acropolis seats in my car but it took some custom brackets to make them fit.
So your best bet is to find a nice pair of seats that you like and then just make brackets.

You can always pick up a set of leather Camaro/Trans-Am seats for $400-$600.

I know this is pretty trashed and faded (I am ordering another) but it is light years better than stock.

What you should do is buy a set of leather trans am seats. They are miles above the camaro highbacks when it comes to comfort, and I think they look pretty damn badass too. The best thing is that (obviously) they bolt right in, and you can use the side piece from your camaro to keep the power seats.
I have an 00 camaro that came with cloth (yuck). I bought 01-02 t/a seats, and then had the headrest embroidered.
