Default Where to get seat cover for 2004 Lemans commemorative

The time has come, the OEM seat covers are made of cheap grade Chinese water buffalo hide and they have cracked and ripped open.

Anyone know of a good source for new covers, it seems the factory no longer has them.

Try Vette Essentials better than OEM

BTW I test drove a new StingRay today, the base model, lots of fancy electronics, bells and whistles but,,,, meh... You absolutely get almost zero road feedback,, fly by wire steering just kills feedback and excitement. After wards I got into my C5 and it felt like home, I might just put a supercharger on it and enjoy it for another decade or so.

Here's another source, never bought from these guys but was eyeing the AE covers:

I have both a C7 coupe and a C5 50th AE vert, and they are different beasts, that's for certain. In the C7 you can go 130mph and it feels like 65, and in the vert with the top down, 65 feels like 130! There's something to be said for both experiences.

Another recommendation for Vette Essentials. I've had their products in my C5 for seven years and everything still looks like new. Expensive, but you get top quality leather and excellent customer service.
