hit the salvage yard, or find someone on here selling seats close to you so you won't have to pay crazy shipping rates.

Seats are ******* seats.

Excuse the language

you can get just about any junker sport coup seats.

just the other day I saw some nice porche buckets

Trouble is:

Are you crafty enough?

Its not that hard.

Take any seat.

Even from your dinning room table.

Put that in there.

For cheap seats, I'd go junking too. My blue leather seats in my very have alot of wear and I'm looking for good seats for a vert. I'd love to be able to get cheap... and stylish seats.

Junkyards are good sources for lots of things including seats. Remember that seat covering material is "expendable" You might have a tough time finding ones that are significantly better than what you have now.

As long as the frames aren't damaged and the foam is decent, buy a set of covers. One of the other posts listed a source. It's a good project to do in the house where it's warm and as long as you pay attention to what you're doing, the results are good.

The TII seats are very good IMO it would be well worth getting them rather than some lousy seats.
