Some members have asked about perforated leather for the inserts (like the o/e seats). We checked on it and it can be done. We would have to send the leather out to be perforated and between the shipping and perforation charges it would add $120 to the cost of a pair of seats.

We may need to know GM's name for the color. There were quite a few GM grays used on different models. The safest way is to have a small sample of the leather or matching vinyl to compare to.

Those are some good looking seats! How much would a pair of those seats cost and a matching set of leather seat covers for the rear seats?

Those are awesome. Factory Camaro seats suck horribly compared to Firebird seats, so this is a great upgrade. Hopefully some guys step up and get them, we'd like to keep Arizen around here.

About $1495 depending on options. You'd need mounting brackets as well but I'd work with you on that.

Thanks for the information. When I start back to work in August, I'll be saving up for these first.

We've sold even more sets for 1st gen Camaros than late model. The stock seats were worthless as I'm sure you know. Save up for seats in matching vinyl for your 67 for your second purchase.

I'll have to see if the leather distributor has any information. Is this your color? It looks lighter than Ebony.

We have never done GM o/e cloths before. The GM cloth pages in upholstery books have dozens of cloths that are very similar with just slight variances between car models. We cannot with certainty match the cloths without the car present and even then it's not a flawless process. The leathers are easier because there usually is only 2 or 3 options per year and patterns are an issue.

If you were able to have a local upholstery shop match your cloth and get the part # from the "Detroit Body Products" book (used by most shops) we could see if it is still available. They are supposed to be o/e so i would think the "fading" would be similar.

I don't know that for certain. The dash looks the same but maybe someone more familiar with the car can help here. You can have Ebony if it blends with your plastic parts better or another color if you desire. We can do 2-tones or seats with suede inserts as well.
