Any chance you can take a picture of what you're talking about regarding the lack of fabric and foam showing? Also for Ridies.. any chance that gets corrected if it is a big issue?

Otherwise, the upholstery shop said they were easier to install than some of the others they have seen. They appear to be soft leather, we'll see how they hold up.

Definitely. See attached. The "v" starts too huh up, needed to be longer. These were professionally installed by a shop I've used a few times with great success in the past.
Also just a side note that steaming will not remove the wrinkles (the shop, of course, steamed these prior to install), the covers themselves pucker slightly because they are slightly too small for the seats and that's where the wrinkles comes in. Like wearing a button down shirt that's a half size too small. Now that I've had them installed for a few weeks it's less but still present. Just FYI!

I got some of these for my old BMW and had them professionally installed and they looked perfect. My seats are good in my RX-7 currently if they weren't I would order these from rides.

Has anyone else picked these up yet? I'm trying to decide to pull the trigger or not... would like some more reviews
I'm thinking the same thing... Just picked up a nice FD that can use a leather seat refresh. Anyone else buy these and what do you all think about the results/quality of the product?
I'm considering getting these for my FD. I have the original beige interior and I'm trying t replace everything with black. I want it to look as good as possible to I might just buy used seats.
Anyone else buy these? Were they in stock or did it take weeks to make? Does it come with the seat belt holder and brackets? Or you reuse the old one?
Mine did not come with the belt holder or bracket, I ordered a new set for install from Priority Mazda. I've had these covers installed now for a little over a year and they are in great shape. I'm definitely happy with how they have held up and they look great. They were in stock and shipped within 1 week of my order, but that was about a year ago. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the reply, only downside I see is how baggy they are.
I just had these covers installed on my seats, and I'm happy with the results. I purchase the nappa leather in black. There are very few if any wrinkles.
I paid a local shop $400 to repair the foam in one of the bolsters and install the covers.
Mine don't appear to have the missing fabric issue noted above.

They look great, now that there's a few more folks posting up reviews on these seat covers here, I might pull the trigger on a set for my FD. Question for you though - Is the seat belt guide strap shown in your pictures the original OEM Mazda piece that was re-installed, or did you replace the Mazda piece with the optional guide that Ridies.com offers?
Reason I ask is my original Mazda seat belt guide plastics are pretty beat up, and if that's a replacement copy, it sure looks just like the original.

Those are the OEM Mazda seat belt guides. I asked the installer to reinstall those from the original covers.
i have these and love them. they fit perfect and smell amazing. just make sure you know what you are doing with hog nose pliers and it'll fit perfect. worth the wait.
