2004 C5 replaced Interior seats?
Hi
We just recently bought this 2004 C5. Its in such great condition! We are wondering if the interior seats are original or if they were replaced? The leather on the seats are in such great condition and I haven't seen this color combination either.
all opinions welcomed 🙂

Def aftermarket. My guess would be ridies (that is, before they lost the right to use corvette branding)

I have replaced my seat covers and those look similar to mine. I replaced my torn covers and seat foam from "Vette Essentials." I don't know if they are still in business but at the time they were the best all leather seats available.
Hope this helps.

"Vette Essentials" is no more unfortunately.
As for the OP, those are 100% aftermarket seat skins. Look great though!
