New leather seats from Lethal...

Hi, Thought I would show my progress of changing the cloth seats to leather. These are covers made by Lethal Interiors and the fit is perfect, every stitch is where it should be.

The install was easy once I got the hang of it.

Louis

Hi Kaydoe, No, I did the door panels myself. Your little bug got me, thought it was a tick.

Everything looks great, Louis. Excellent work by the Princess; excellent choice of colors by you. And I love the headrests. They add the "sportier" appearance of PMDs and Recaros in early 3rdgen 'birds. What are those from?

Hi LA, thanks for the nice words. Yes, outstanding work by the Princess.
I never did like the headrests on the firebird, they just look like a lump. I searched and found this type of headset, its called the "halo". My everyday is a 2000 Buick regal and it had the type of headset i wanted. So, I liberated them from my car. modified them to accept the single post as opposed to the dual pin type, dyed then the color of the gray in the seat and here we are. I am now looking for a new set for my Buick.

Re: New leather seats from Lethal...

Hi 91,
Thanks for the nice words. The brand of leather is Caprone, its beautiful leather. It would not be right for me to disclose the price, because I had more done than normal, so you cannot use me as a guide. Here is her web site link and you will find her email addy.

She is a delight to work with and her name is Princess.

no problem I understand. I will contact her. I was just curious if it was $600 or closer to $1,000.I know that every job will be a different price. She sure does nice work though! Thanks for sharing your pictures.
