Default Interior Restoration.

OK you all have your opinion on suppliers. :lolg: ANyway, Who is the best supplier (fit, finish and delivery) for:
1. SEATS
2. CARPETS
3. SEALS
4. Door panels
You get the idea. SOme folks, me included, are doing a full makeover on the interior. I have the advantage over them because of my business BUT what about everybody else? I will gladly give bandwidth on one of our sites, would prefer it here, for this GO TO list :cheers:

Everyone in our club always says Al Knoch for interiors. I bought new seat covers from Mid America, and the box was direct shipped from..........Al Knoch. It was cheaper at Mid America too. I suspect all interior components at Mid America come from Al Knoch.

Catalog vendors sell other company's stuff. Most carpet comes from ACC and is sold by everyone. Same with Corvette America brand door panels...
For my interior dollars...I'll go to The Last Detail

Very Interesting. With our C4 we used Ecklers and Corvette Central. With the wifes C3 we will purchse carpet, and redye the balance of the car from RED to Doeskin or Saddle. THis is not a NCRS restoration so we may go with one of the Rolls or Jaguar Beige colors. :cheers:

I just finished a complete interior restoration--using Corvette Central. My order was > $1000, so they took 10% off. Very happy with fit and finish.

i just ordered leatherlike seat covers and foam from Wilcox. Foam, covers and install kit should be around 300 bucks. I've heard that a lot of forum members have been happy with the wilcox leatherlike covers. hope it turns out well in mine! I haven't purchased carpet yet.
