Seat covers

Where can I find seat covers for my '91? they have standard leather seats that are slightly torn up and I wanted to get some decent cloth seat covers until I can afford to buy new seats for it. any ideas?

There is no one that I know of that has factory seat cover replacements already made. They say OSA has them but no one has been able to show us what they look like. So I guess it is a wait and see or take the car to have the seats redone.

Autozone, 2 for $40 "Universal Racing Style Seat Covers" by Pilot. They're nice actually, I put them in my '86 GXL and they made it actually look better and they made the ride better too (girls love them too).

I got the Blue/Black (Like the euro racing but the red is black and the yellow is blue). I'll try to get a pic of my setup later tonight.

unfortunately, they don't work well on the seats I have, due to the paddiong on the seat covers. I'll be returning them tomorrow.

The main problem with the Pilot seat covers, is the large pads on them. My stock leather seats are raised on the side of the seat and the sides of the back, and so the pads on the seat covers kinda squeeze you in and you sit a lot higher and it's extremely uncomfortable.

just ordered the AquaTec (or w/e) seat covers that are actually MADE for the kind of seats I have. Funny thing, my mom said that if I took the SAT again, she'd buy me the seat covers, whatever.

heheh i think he's ok with up higher and tighter his seats kinda real far up so the covers probably work well since he's a small guy.

Hmmm......Autozone huh? I am looking for seat covers too for my GXL and all the ones I have bought so far from other auto parts stores don't fit right. Good thing I am making a road trip today to VA, we don't have an Autozone here.
