Holy Crap, that is a lot cheaper than I thought it'd be. I'd say totally worth it.

Yeah, its really just a matter of looking around to find a shop willing to do it for you. Like I said, i tried several shops, some just gave me insanely high estimates because I could tell they didnt really want to do the job. Others said they could do it, but even offered a few leads to someone that could help me out better. The place that finally did it took the time to show me around, displayed some of their work, and asked and answered a lot of questions about what I was really looking for. Originally, I was looking for someone to do it all in one piece, but after talking it over, this guy talked me into getting the seams. He made sure the material matched the seats I got, and he did a similar style of seams on the dash that was found on my seats, so its all coming together really nice. So just call around, stop in a few places, it cant hurt to ask. The key is finding someone that WANTS to do the work. If they sound hesitant about it, might be a good idea to keep looking.
