I paid $300 for front and back for leather seats out of a 2000 Camaro from a junkyard. My seats look almost brand new. As far as fixing seats go my buddy recoverd a grand am seat in a few days..took the old covering off and made a new one with fabric he bought the store..

I paid 800 bucks for a set of MINT seats from a wrecked 2000 TA with 13k miles on it. I bought them from Hawks, but I'm still happy with the purchase.

The 4th gen seats bolt right in It took me about an hour and a half to take the stock ones out and put the new ones in.. The driver side seat was the only power seat I got and it still works but I dont have it hooked up yet...soon.

I just did the swap and used manual seats form a firebird...I removed the 4th gen seat tracks, and install my original ones, including the power drivers seat, the only thing that is not a direct bolt up is the seat controls, and I am going to fab up a bracket for that to mount under the seat
