Anyone recognise these seats?

I've been offered some seats from a guy who has taken these out of his 3rd gen. They appear to be 4th gen seats but as the covers need replacing, i'm only going to buy them if I can find a set of new covers.

Does anyone recognise which model they came out of, and even better where to get a set of new covers.

Thanks in advance for any help.

The seats pictured are non-Third Gen or custom.

Yeah,don't mean to sound like a rude a-hole,but I personally think them seats are nothing more than a pile of rubbish.They really look like they're just pieced together from god knows what.The covers are horribly wrinkled,and don't even fit.

Thanks again all, i have walked from these. The hunt continues for a set of 4th gen seats. They're as rare as rocking horse droppings over here in the UK.

Re: Anyone recognise these seats?

those are some shade of firebird seats from 82-02.
you can use that seat and put on 4th gen covers. i bet they will fit......
a side shot would show the seat better, but those are for sure firebirds.
look like aftermarket covers on them already. i dont recognize that pattern.
