need help finding a way to repair leather seats for 88 rx7 convertable
Unfortunatly my car suffered serious leather seat damage from wild cats. I need some direction on how to get new covers and make things good again. My car is a 1988 vert rx7. I am opened minded about soultions. Katskins do not have the patterns for this one... please help on this one if you have any good direction

they say they have a pattern for the vert seats, and i have seen a 3rd gen interior from these guys, and it was excellent. (pricey though- there is supposedly a group buy in the group buy section-but i didnt look as I have leather already, and am looking for someone who does upholstery)

thanks for you input I am looking into this. It appears that theses are seat covers. I wish to get replacement seat skins for seats that are already leather. thanks again. I am waiting for a response from the site you recomend
How bad? well imagine a covertable rx-7 sitting in a driveway with the targa removed but top up and the car is covered with a car cover. A freken cat some how claws through the car cover to get inside then understand that now this cat is inside and only has one small exit out. Its kinda like diving under ice. Do you see now. Well now I go outside and I havent totally figured this thing out yet but the cat has and he wants to get out fast. This cat was bonging of the walls inside my car and on the exit out the hole it made more full thickness cuts in the seats with the claws than I care to count. Its too painfull to even look at. There is more to this story and the seats are not all that are damaged. I expected the worse I could expect from cats is cat hair,spray or a good cat fight. Nobody Ive talked to can beleave this... Ive got it on video tape.

I am going now to edit the tape. Ive recorded much over the last week. Today I met the insurence company. Its looks like it will be tuff getting the seat covers replaced. today is the first time i look over the car closlely. It looks like the top is toast. 75% of the leather seats are ruined. and the wetherstrip across the rear top suffered mutiple puchures and one laceration. The insurence againt spotted paint damage. I wounder if I could send this to a t.v. show? It kinda isnt funny and it does not make sence. No coment about the cats
we want to see...
Well right now film and pictures are processing with my auto insurence. They are very understanding and agreeable. I can send pictures however ,the vhs video is the best and I dont know how I would send that kind of video even if I had it on a recorded dvd.
I will get new seat covers on both sides but in a way It is kinda the death of my car . The car is 17 years old . The top is original and was in mint shape, the driver seat is excellent and the passenger is mint. Now with the claw damage we dont have the original stuff to wow at. It is only part of a story. This kind of stuff is what makes a car more rare down the road. We need more killer cats could yah right.
