Does anyone have any good info on where to find good leather replacements for the front and rear seats? The leather on my '95 is ripped to shreads and I don't want to replace the actual seats, just the leather. I want it to look stack. Anyplace I find has replacements for $700.00 or $800.00, and that is just nuts.

If i were you i get some sport seats from cobra or coberu or sparco. Mustang seats are horrible in my opinion. They are simply too big and you slide everywhere due to no support. You might even save money by going aftermarket and loos better too.

it would probably cost more to take it to an upholstery shop then it would to just buy the covers, it'll take about a hide of leather to do the seats, a good hide will cost around $700 or more and you can only buy it by the hide; no less, and then you got pay for labor, and if the hides cheaper than that then its junk ass leather and you dont want it

why reupholster everything if you only need the driverside. i also like the idea of corbeu fronts but they're kinda pricey too.

people usually do both seats so one isnt all new and shiny while the other one is old and worn in

I'd take it to an upholstery shop. Have you looked @ Catskins, I think is their name. Maybe with a K, though. 50resto sells leather, I think.
