Default New Leather Seats
Last week I purchased new leather seats at Carlisle from Corvette Originals. These are the same materials as original, leather seating and vinyl back. Show special was $555.

You got a great deal, but what's up with those large logos? I've never seen them so big before...or, is that just a camera thing?

Thank you for the compliments. The logos are large, but I like the look. Notice that the gap is gone below the headrest. The job took me 4 hours including removing and installing the seats. Thanks to this great forum I got the confidence to do it myself.
