Leather seat covers can end up costing as much, if not more than 4th gen seats. Instead of thinking about covers, you might want to think about upgrading to more comfortable, newer 4th gen seats.

I actually like my 3rd gen seats. they feel good to me, at least.

I was thinking about possibly sewing my own Seat covers, but working with leather is difficult. I might just go with 4th gen seats.

I was specifically refering to the Katzkin leather seats, however they don't make covers for thirdgens. They do have covers for 4th gens though, so you could in essence buy some real cheap 4th gen seats and recover them with Katzkin leather. I have seen some of this Katzkin stuff and is beautiful.

Edit: Crap, didn't include teh website.
