Default Synthetic leather seats



Has anybody installed the synthetic leather from Ridies or any other company? The price is right and at this point anything is better than my factory worn out leather/vinyl....

Mine are genuine Naugahyde.

I love the feel of vinyl on my skin.

Use the search function and type in Ridies - they advertise here often and members that have bought their products have posted some reviews.

I have them and the fit and finish are excellent if you buy the bottoms.

Would not hesitate I have a family room couch and chairs with PVC covers. They never wrinkle need absolutely no maintenance and don't get damaged easily always look like new. The leather I replaced these with always looked stretched and worn out. I also replaced the skins on my Corvette with leather wear areas skins and sometimes regret not going PVC. Don't worry they will be fine. Enjoy the money you saved!
