came up on some kick a$$ seat covers.

since I got my car I have been searching and searching for some nice seat covers for my car but to no avail, yesterday I went over to auto zone and right when I walked in they had these universal racing car seat covers, they look perfect for my car, they are a leather material and are black with a thick red strip going down the middle, the best part is the red is the exact color as my interior! they also have a soft bump on the lower back of the seat cover for back support, and they dont tie around the back on there the kind that you pull over the origional seat and clip from the bottom, there perfect and my my car look so much better , i'll post pics soon

oh and they were 30 bucks each and 40 for a set.

Yea, I saw mine @ Pep Boy's and got them for a little more. They look tight! Fits well and is comfortable too. But it does make you sit higher in the car.....

i'll post pics of the seat covers byt he end of the weekend, so i get my new tach in the pic as well , but the reason i got those seat covers i because my seats were completly FUBARed out, they were riped and extremly faded, with these new car seat covers it completes my interiors tightness

expect pics soon.

DUDE! I just got those seat covers over the weekend! They look sweet, but the lumbar support takes some gettin' used to (for me, anyway ) and they're cushioned so they kinda push you forward in the seat a bit... I'm 6'2or3" and my knees now touch the lower part of the dash.

However, they do look SWEET! And they make my old crappy worn out seats actually comfortable!!! Did I mention they look SWEET!?

Anyways, sorry; I just got em, so I don't have pics, but I just wanted to let you know the few downsides if your tall; I'm planning on maybe spacing back my driver's side seat a couple inches (is that possible?), which seems like a dumb thing to do to make seat covers fit, but these seat covers are friggin' awesome!

Hey Folks! I have the exact pair of covers in my 85 Camaro. VERY comfortable and they look good. I have the red/black ones. They were a little on the expensive side (40$ each). But they were well worth it. Just my two cents.

Can anyone get pics of these. I'm off at college now and there are no Autozones around. Is this something they carry normally or is it a special.

Sorry, no pics. My digital camera's software is messed up so I have a replacement in the mail... Anyways, the seat covers seem to be an Autozone regular deal ongoing for a few months now, but everywhere else I've looked (Pepboys, for example) has them for $50 a piece, which is outrageous (actually, that's prolly what they're worth-- leather simulation and all, good quality seats). Autozone for some reason has 'em for $30 each or $40 for both!!! I'm now used to the lumbar supports and I find them very comfortable, but like I said b4 my knee does touch the dash, so if your tall... I'll try to get pics soon. They do look bichin' tho.
