All the one's I see on the net suck! They look NOTHING like the original leather, they hardly even look like Med Dk Grey!

Help me......mine were discontinued by GM in 96

This is the e-mail of a company I hear does good work. www.mrmikes.com/3rdgen/3rdgenseats.htm
Way cheaper than the dealership.

I purchased the mr mike's leather seat covers and I am very happy with them. He also did my door panels and my back panels by the rear seats. He does great work and seems to be a good guy. If I can find my pictures in my computer, I will put them up.

SO..the leather seat covers will work for the seats i have for my 1983 TA? I would have to cover them myself? Is this hard to do? Do they look good? Is it worth buying the covers? I have cloth seats now, so would i be able to cover them? Thanks.

For a while on another board they were having a group purchase on recovering for the turbo trans am's. Also someone emailed me an address of a place that did it inexpensively. Have you tried looking for a different year TA? The new TA's have the same bottom and back parts, so you could maybe see what colors they used in 99 or 2000. Lastly Mr Mikes doesnt have covers that fit on GTA seats. I went to your page though, your seats look fine, what is the matter with them?
Just a suggestion on your web page, it is very hard to read the dark blue on the black background.
You have a beautiful car. I wish I could get a 92 GTA in Jamaica Yellow.
