My car is a '91. You need to be more specific on which seats you have since there are two different styles of seats used in these cars.

Re: Seat covers

Search on covergirl. She does great work. I replaced my drivers side foam with new. Ordered hog ring pliers and rings from amazon. Watched a utube that was a thirdgen tutorial on upholstering seats. Knocked em out in the basement. Oiled rails and took care of some minor rust while I was at it. Its work... but rewarding. Here's another pic. Hounds tooth red on black.

Re: Seat covers

Yeah. It was a job. Search on covergirl and ask for a quote. She might ask you to send a cover from one of your front seats. Once you find that utube and chat with covergirl, you will gain confidence. It wasn't too bad. You need 190 hog rings, hog ring pliers, some instruction, and plenty of hand strength. I think I paid a bit more for the material I chose. Don't remember. Been busy with other stuff. Pics.

X2 for Covergirl... www.lethalinteriors.com!

Started my cover installation over the weekend. I didn't get the fronts done, and the pics are kinda poor, but they look good. The price was right too

Re: Seat covers

Looks good. The sun will help stretch everything into place and smooth the covers out.

Re: Seat covers

Her name is Princess. Maybe Covergirl was a screen name on the forum. She is Lethal Interiors. You can google or find her on facebook.

She is great to work with and does top notch work. She did the seats on my 89.
