Default Buying new seats!!

Im, going to Carsile. I want to buy new seat covers mounted to new foam. These are white, non sport style, and on a 93. My question is, are there any differences in the different venders? Quality, fit etc? Thanks for your help

Yes, I got some covers 4 my Vette and the material was different than what I originally had. So look around at the different vendors and make sure that U get the material that U have now. I plan on changing my covers again within the next 2 years or so, with the correct material. Good Luck. :cheers:

35TH,
Can you tell me what brand you purchased? I posted this question on the restoration section and was told that the Al Knoch brand was the best for C1,2 and 3 vetts.

I forgot the companies name that I got them from, but they weren't Al Knoch I'm sure of that. I may have 2 go with Al next time if there a better brand. The material that I have is leather, it's just a different grain than the factory seats.
