Default Good time to do it...

Winter keeping your C7 baby in the garage? This may be a great time to install a set of new C7 Corvette Seat Skins!

When Spring gets here you're gonna want to hit the road. Maybe take a planned road trip.
You would do well to have a set of our C7 Corvette Seat Skins already installed and ready to go. You'll get good looks and peace of mind knowing your precious C7 seats are being protected from scratches and wear.



You don't want to wait until wear starts to show...then its too late. You want to prevent permanent damage to your seats before it happens.

So, here's your Winter project: https://www.sandyeggodesigns.com/pro...te-seat-skins/
And don't worry, you've got the whole Winter to do the installation!


Cheers,
Dave

I have the diamond with red panels installed. Highly recommended and worth the money.

If they only had the diamond with blue, I probably would have gone that way

How do these install, do they slip over the seats? What color would you recommend for Long Beach red with black interior?

Yup. They are pulled tightly over the seats.
I think the suede with gray accent or the diamond with gray panels would look great.

I assume the seat skin covers render the factory seat heaters/ventilation useless. Correct?

Thanks, but not interested in saving the seats for the next owner.

It’s great that the skins can be pulled over the existing seats, but do the seats need to be removed for installation?

Thx!

These are very nice seat covers. I got the suede/red accents. Install is a PITA, but once done, very nice.

Nope. It's some grunting and cursing but the seats don't have to come out. Actually, most of it is not too bad... Just do it a little at a time over a day or two and it's not a big deal. ...worth the effort.
You can see the instructions here
Cheers,
Dave

Not entirely. The skins do have ventilation holes.

A buddy of mine has a yellow GS and has been dying for yellow accent to brighten up the black interior. Do you offer stitching in yellow?

I’d love something in yellow too. The black interior is just too much black.
