New seats, U like? Pics

I bought these covers from Hawks Third Gen, great people by the way, and I put them on yesterday. I think they really bring out the inside now! If you need a good set of covers Hawk's has em'.



Heres a shot of the car for those who havent seen it ( cheap opp. to post pic! )

Nice...I've got some white covers also but for T/A seats that I haven't gotten around to putting on. How was the fit of the material?

They carry the red insert and grey inserts, mine were special ordered. I think you can get them howevewr you want. It only took 4 weeks to get them.

The fittment sucked.......then I realized I put the covers for the front lowers on the rears then they fit perfect! lol

Damn man goes great with the white car ... whyd I waste my money on leather

Are they wrinkly? It kinda looks like that in the pics but i cant tell, if you go over em with a heat gun they might mold to the seat a little better.

They go on like originals by removing the old material so it sounds bad by saying "covers" , once they sat in the hot sun for an hour they unwrinkled more.

Looks great.

Now about screwing in the seatbelt holders in the head rest......are there holes or are you going to have to go through the material?

Jim.

I agree. the stripes, seats, all the details you put into that thing make it one of the nicest third gens I have seen IMO.

The seats are from a fourth gen, got the whole set for $100 from a junk yard. The covers were $400 with shipping and all. So for $500 and a little work I got new seats. They are Hampton vinyl which to me feels damn close to leather with out all the BS that goes with caring for leather.

I have to cut small holes for the seat belt holders but I am thinking of trying to use the fourth gen holders instead of the third gen's because they look better but I havent decided yet.

Yup the 4th gens look way better, I had the thirdgens on m fourthgen seats for awhile and it doesnt look right at all... they both screw in at the same place so you could go ahead and make holes either way.

Nice! I think I just found some new seats to replace the ones in my '84! Though they'd be red, since that's what color the car is.
