4th gen seat covering question
Since the deal fell through on my "mint" 4th gen t/a seats, a guy on coloradof-body said he has a set of cloth 95 camaro seats that he will sell me for 50 bucks. I dont want cloth and they are slightly worn anyway but for 50 bucks and the foam is perfect i think thats a hell of a deal.
Classic industries has the hampton vinyl covers for them for 400 bucks, i'd be 450 deep for perfect seat of teh gen 4 lol. Can you recover cloth seats in the hampton without problems. We recovered the seats in my dads 81 Z with the covers from classic and its easy to do but you can change the material right? without fitting issues?

just remove old covers

Thanks guys i've doen seat covers before but wasnt sure if leathers would work on cloth seats. Now i'm considering racing seats though think early 4th gen camaro seats arent meaty enough looking

Hawk's has covers too.

Pretyy easy to do. Use a hair dryer or leave them out in the sun to stretch. Mix some dishsoap with water in a spray bottle to get them to slide into position. It helps a lot.

Thanks, dude. Here's the skinny ... after you peel the old covers off, use a hair dryer or let the sun heat the new covers up to stretch them out a bit. It WILL help. Also, use a spray bottle with a mixture of water and dishsoap to help manuever the new covers into place. I rolled mine inside out and work a little at a time down over the seat. You may end up with little wrinkle spots but those will be worked out by sitting on them and the sun stretching them out. Well worth the $425 for the covers.
