Best seat covers and floor mats?

I'm looking for the best seat covers and floor mats to go with a 1986 t/a with maui blue exterior and grey interior. I'd prefer the floor mats to be carpeted.

pep boys has some really thick mats, even has a nice stiched border around the edge.
i think a 4piece set was 39 bucks.
really cleans up the car with new mats. i keep my old ones for the track now, which are still in great shape.

Re: Best seat covers and floor mats?

I guess the problem with this is that not too many have tried several brands..

i did recover my seats last winter with covers from classic industries.

I did tho get the color a bit wrong, I hoped they would be way darker, and they looked a lot darker in the catalog, i guess that's what i get for not requesting samples.

it is still a lot better than worn, dirty gray seats that were there.

but as for fit, take a look at these pictures.. the fitment issue i encountered was that there was a bit too much fabric on the headrest, making it wrinkle a bit there. The seat may also have lost some of it's shape. I probably should have stuffed it with some extra foam. Again, live and learn.

Anyhow, judge for yourself.
