Default Torn seat gotta replace

I few nights ago I tore the diver's seat on back. So now I have the perfect excuse to get new covers. Blk/Blk vert, and I want to try and cool the interior down a bit. I have been looking at covers with the silver mix with black. If anyone would like to post up pictures of their seat covers, much appreciated. If your same colors as me great, but any color combo will help. Thanks

The install is easy and interesting. I also added seat warmers to the seat backs and bottoms (inexpensively on e-bay) when I was replacing mine. Also tightened up the loose seat.

Vette Essentials is a great source. Here are pics of many of their customers' interiors, plenty of ideas for using more than one color.....

I would put that money toward a set of Corbeau A4's!

They get great reviews.
