So my drivers seat has some bad tears in them but all my others are in near perfect condition, hardly any cracks. I went to a leather and car top repair place to get a estimate and they wanted 800$ for one seat! he said i could buy factroy seat covers that would look original but i cant buy just one and they whole set is 850. dose any one know what a cheaper alternative would be (other than a whole new seat) or where i can buy just one seat cover?

sry but the smartest thing to do the CHEAPEST way to do it is to buy a new seat. you could get a new seat in GREAT condition for probably less than 200 dollars.

Get your racing seats, do a rear seat delete and you should be good!

i am doing leather Corbeau A4's probably. it probably wont match perfectly but it will still look good.

and also, look at classifieds for seats. Corral, SVTPerformance.com, our classifieds, any mustang forum really.

I have been looking at the summit seats ... they are simulated leather and I got the tan interior also... so i wonder if the beige "misspelled" would match b/c i want to keep my back seats.

Do not get those seats! They are not of that color, at least the ones that I bought from Summit. They were a light cream color, plus the material was not the best quality. I am surprised they are still showing that color seat. I phoned telling them about the wrong color. Summit said they had no control of the color of the seats (Made in China, BTW) They said at the time that so far as they know, all the beige seats do not match that color.

Just search on some forums and eventually some will pop up for sale. I just got some newer ones out of a '98 for mine this fall. If my drivers seat was in good shape I'd sell it to you, but its not.

lol i want some aftermarket ones lol.

I have looked around for matching tan seats within that price range. Did not find any. I paid more and got the Arizen seats with matching tan inserts. For $679 plus the cost of mounting brackets, you can get these in tan, simulated leather. I have the sim leather on the back of the seat and it looks and feels like leather, plus my tan inserts match the saddle perfectly.
