Default Seat Covers

Anyone have suggestions for seat covers? My driver side leather seat has seen better days, so I'm looking to get good fitting covers for both.

Aloha - If you get no responses on seat covers, a good auto trim shop should be able to replace your worn seat bolster panels. I had some leather panels replaced on another vehicle by a local shop, and the match was perfect and affordable.

Ditto on the panel replacement. And price can be quite reasonable if you remove and install seat.

There are some nice quality sheepskin covers out there. Are cool in summer and warm in winter.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I'm trying to sell the car. I'm not going to take the time or money to remove and reinstall seats after they get new leather. I'll pass that idea onto the potential buyers, but don't wish to get into myself. Just need the seats to look okay for now. Sheepskin is okay, but not all people like it.

Would that go with **** carpet on the top of the dash?
You have got to be kidding.

Seat covers hiding damaged leather fools nobody.
Leave as is and be up front about it, sell it for a little less.
