so im in need of new seats. mine are just way to stain and ripped so i need something new. i wanted 4th gen seats but im having trouble finding some locally so im going a diff route. i actualy found someone near by willing to sell me the seats in their camaro. you guys think i should get them? idk how they would look in my all black interior.


heres my existing interior






pictures are from my phone so ther not the best and my interior is quite dirty havent had a chance to clean it but honestly its pretty mint except for the seats

heres the exact seats im looking to buy


what do you guys think? he also said he would do an swap for the door panels. ill give him my all black ones and hell give me the ones you can kinda see in the picture.


yay or nay??

thanks for any help in deciding

 

The new ones look better

 

yeah for sure no rips or anything but what im worried out is that the grey and tan seats will stick out and look out of place in my all black interior.

 

If you do buy them, pressure wash your old seats or if you have a carpet cleaner, use the upholstery tool. I know washing them is probably not good, for rust reasons, but since you're replacing them it won't matter too much

 

bump. no other opinions?

 

aren't those 4th gen seats? Personally I think they look better but I wouldn't get rid of your black door panels. Personally I would wait till you find what you want or just get some that are trashed and have them recovered. Other than your seats your interior looks really good so I would just get what you want, have you checked craigslist or ebay?

 

The seats you are looking at buying are originally from a 4th Gen Camaro, probably about a 1995.

 

as long as your old seats arent ripped or have any holes in them just rent a rug doctor with the hand attatchment and go to town on em. itll cost you maybe 40 dollars in the end if you buy their soap (which i recommend) and you can have them looking like brand new. seriously ive made some seats that look like total garbage look like the day they were made, its a little time consuming but its your cheapest option and it keeps your car all original

 

yeah i figured they wer 4th gen seats althought they look exactly like
mine.. and yeah i got rips and tears in the seat. id need to recover the foam in my drivers seat and all that. beside i like the color of the newer seats better then the original. but i think ill just get the seats and not the door panels. i was just worried the seats would stick out but every thing matches with black. at least in my book. lol and $250 for the set aint bad.

 

also i wouldnt need a rug doctor we actually own our own carpet cleaner and it has an auto uhpolstery attachment

 

You could do one better on cleaning your seats. Take the seats apart, remove the seat covers and wash them in the tub. You can use Simple Green, Oxy Clean and/or Resolve. You'd be surprised at how clean they'll be. Let them air dry and then put them back on.

 

driver seat has a huge rip on the left side cant see it in the picture. plus the foam isnt in the area where the slit is. so that seat would need to be recovered. and theres like rips on the backs of the front seats. so its really ether new seats or new covers and foam for the driver seat
