Default Seat covers

A few of the Corvette vendors are offering to recover seats when you purchase the covers from them. Has anyone used a vendor? Which vendor is the best to use?

Thanks,

Nobody has used a vendor (willcox, ma, cc, etc) to install seat covers?

I read your post yesterday and thought that it's possible the boxing and shipping costs for the seats might be as costly as having them installed locally.
Think about Al Knock's covers and his installation video.
