anyone seen these seats before? factory?

Hi I recently picked up an 88 iroc convertible and am having problems locating replacement seat covers online. I spoke to a buddy that's really knowledgeable about 3rd gen and he seems to think the seats were redone before in a none stock pattern. Any info would be great. Thanks

Hey Paul057509 what do you mean his stearing wheel is rare? Are you referring to the custom wrap?

Re: anyone seen these seats before? factory?

Thanks for the info. I'll post a pic of the door panel tomorrow which are two tone also. I bought the car from a lady that owned it since 94 and she says that's how she got the car. But it also had iroc decals n stripes but the rpo stickers says it's a decal delete car. So Im not sure what's been done with it. And yeah that's some cheap pep boys steering wheel cover.

I would say reupholstered too. No guide on the head rest and no signs of it being there.
If you are thinking of reupholstering them, check out lethalinteriors.com. She does amazing work and installing them isn't bad just a bit time consuming.

It's a vert so that's why there are no holes on the headrest for seat belt guides.

Re: anyone seen these seats before? factory?

door panels look reupholstered, the seats look like mine that are in my 84' camaro, except mine are all solid and dont have that gap for the head rest, but the patterns and lines are all the same

What years were the one-piece backs and were they simply the base seats?
The separate headrest was available. 82-92 AFAIK.

One piece backs, why couldn't i of thought of just calling them that, much easier than my description, anyways not sure what years they were available but they are in my 84; so at least 84'
