Default C5 leather seat covers

Normally in the C2 forum, and have a question on C5 leather sport seat covers. I'm thinking of having some installed in my 98 to change color from black to red. Has anyone done this? did you like the results, where did you buy them?

Thanks guys.

I bought my leather seat covers from Matt at Vette Essentials. Top quality product and excellent customer service. I will say they are more expensive than many of the others available. If they are out of your budget range, there are others out there that are very good choices too. Others with different ones in their car will chime in here soon.

Here's the pics of what I went with (have included the ones I had in my '00 as well as in my current '03):

The '03:


The '00:


The '03 originally had all light gray seats, the '00 had all black.
