I now have new carpeting, weatherstripping, new **** and leather boot for the six speed shifter. It is shaping up nicely. I put new iggee seat slip covers over the dogged out leather seats, but this is not keeping me happy right now. (By the way, I am very pleased with the covers, it is just knowing that those ugly worn out seats are hiding under there!!)

As I have ordered parts I have found a wide range of quality from Mid America, Wilcox, Corvette America etc.

I am now moving onto new leather seats for the Polo 94...

Suggestions please? First hand advice only. Thanks!!

My passenger seat is still in good shape but the drivers seat is trashed... If anyone has a tan leather skin for a 94 standard seat that would saved me a bundle!?

Lots of lookers so I will give it a try! I looked at many vendors products- every time I found what I liked it was made by Corvette America. I purchased mine from TLD in Atlantia and the covers came from above. You might want to contact them through a vendor and see if you can by just one cover.

I purchased new leather already mounted on foam from Virginia Vettes. When the boxes came, they had Corvette America screened on them.

I did a photo doc of the install. It can be found here:

Those guys make the best seat cover/re-cover kit's in the world, IMO.

There is a tan leather seat up on ebay now. You might want to do a search.
