Default Replacement Seats

Hello all! New to corvette ownership here. Approx a year ago, bought a 1990. Condition was ok ,nothing to write home about. The previous owner stated that if I was not interested he would scrap it for parts.
This troubled me and I went ahead and purchased it to save it from
destruction. Im almost at the point of finishing it but am in need of some seats.( base model). it seems there are no good ones remaining.
was wondering if any of you have had good experiences with aftermarket seats?? Who would you recommend?
thanks in advance.

Depends on keeping it stock, or to your design.

There are many choices, including ebay, that may
help in your decision:

Are you missing the seats all together or do they just need re-done? If you have seats and you want a cheap fix, try these.

I bought neoprene seatcovers from Corvette Mods for $239. I love them, they look great and they fit like a glove!

Funny,my car is the same color ,the covers do really look nice in your car. I'll probably peel off the leather and have a look at the foam,then decide which way to go. Thank you!!

They fit right over the leather, unless you like leather? I hate it, that's why I got the seat covers, my seats are in great condition below, except for the drivers bolster.

Hard to see them, this is the best pic I have before the seat covers, the passenger seat is like new!
