I would try junk yards first-probably best prices. I ordered mine from thirdgenresource. Good points: Seats are immaculate, I don't even have to clean them. They sent me a power driver's seat! Bad points: Took almost a month to arrive at my house! Cost $495 with shipping!

I would look around, but if you got the cashand time to wait, they seem to have good products.

From a great place - Lamberts of Boonesville, MS. I just spoke to Richard today as a matter of fact and they got a bunch of new interiors in this week, all charcoal leather. Tell Richard Dan from Maine told you to call! 662-728-0409

I got mine from an ebay auction. There are always seats for sale on ebay, and you may even find some that you prefer over the 4th gen style. I always see aftermarket seats, and VW Recaros on there.
