leather seat covers - cheap - need a junk set though

Does anyone have junk OEM seat covers for the convertible?

Leatherseats.com will make us some new leather covers for fairly cheap, but they need a pattern to go by.

Anyone have some old OEM convertible leather covers they can loan me? I'd be happy to swap you something for them

Yes I've already tried mazdarecycling.com & mazmart.com

Thanks

I am planning on buying completly new seats, so you could maybe use mine. They're in bad shape though... How decent do they need to be? I mean I think all of the major sections are there, but obviously ripped/torn in various places.

They're still on the seat tho...

Tray,

Louis Herndon e-mailed might be able to provide a junk set. I'll let you know if that falls through though.

Note we'll probably do the coupe leather seats next, so I'll be asking for those soon.

Thanks

I've got a set...............

of Vert seat skins loose I can contribute to the cause boxed and ready to ship.

This said, I'm interested to know if I can piggy back your effort and have them make an extra set in Black for my own use. If so, what would the extra set cost me.

PM me an address of where to send them.

For now they're just getting the basic pattern down. Once they have it, they can supply as many copies as you need. I'm pretty sure they'll do custom color combinations and possibly embroider them for you.

I got prices of $400 for vinyl, and $800 for leather, and the guy already has the patterns.

Question $800 for leather

Is that for a complete set of replacement for both seats? Seat bottom, backs, and headrests for both seats?

Clayton,
I have a set of T2 seats that I can pull the covers off of. Aren't they the same as vert seats? I think just the head rest are different.

Even if they are not the same, I would donate them if I can get a good price on seat covers for them.

Mike
