Default Advice on seat covers...

ugh... my seats "look" brand new, but over the weekend I noticed that the stitching is starting to come out of the drivers side seat. I have no idea how much it would cost to repair, (funds are a little tight right now) so I figured to do the cheaper fix now and put seat covers on it.
Anyway, can anyone recommend some nice looking but inexpensive (less that $200) seat covers?

Thanks!

Hi, I have a set of Light oak and black wet okole seat covers with C5 logo at the head. They fit sport seats with power seats both sides. Sorry, no pics. I live in Baltimore county (Perry Hall) and you might live close enough to come see them. $150.00 and they were were used about a year and nothing wrong with them, I just went for the VetEssential interior.
