Leather seats

So, my son and I are working on our '80 rx7 and were looking for seat covers for the existing seats. I found this company based in Fort Lauderdale, that makes leather or plush vinyl seat covers that fit and look like factory for any car. They didn't have my pattern in stock so I sent my old seat cover to Barry at Trimcar and they are making me two custom covers for my s/a. Just wanted to let you guys know that they now have a pattern for this car. Prices are very reasonable for what you get and they are awesome to work with. THey will also supply material for door panels, hedliners etc. Their website is www.trimcar.com

Regards,
Neil

I ordered the plush vinyl seats in a dark cream colour. the plush vinyl is identical in looks and feel to leather that you can't tell the dif. They were $349.00 for both seats. I think full leather is $499.00. They also have a 50/50 combo. All prices are on the website. I have no connection to this company by the way, just pleased with being able to put factory look leather or leather-look seats in for way less than going to a shop locally. Thought you guys might be interested.

I also found heated seat kits (yup, I'm from Canada) for $80.00/seat including shipping anywhere in north america. Pretty simple to install.

I'll post pics when the project is complete.
