Looks Great! I am considering the conversion myself! Did you to the conversion yourself or did you have a shop do them for you? Either way, how many hours and how much did the installer charge if you didn't do the conversion yourself.

Its seems thst that some areas don't have a tight pull on the leather and shows like wrinkles as if not enough foam...so after sitting and driving it seems the pressure the body places on them that they will only loosen,wrinkle and crease more? Just trying to learn before I tackle project.

The drivers seat most of the wrinkles are out from being in the sun last weekend. The passenger side I repulled the piping and pulled it tighter. The foam was not sitting correctly on the bolster of the seat back. I corrected that in the car, just unbolted seat to shift it towards the door. I will retake pics to show you the difference.
I do not have the actual part numbers. I do know they will fit any 2014-2017 Corvette with GT seats, regardless of trim level, or they can be used to convert Comp seat backs to GT seat backs.
Seats are from a 2LZ, heaters are still attached, missing the cooling fans. They were reused on my Comp seat conversion.

On a scale of 1-10, I would say the level of difficulty the first time for "me" was a 7/10 but if I had to do it again it would be a 5/10. The hardest part is stretching the leather to minimize wrinkles and snapping the headrest bezels in place. It's a little tedious but well worth it and there is a step by step instructions on the vendors website and in the Corvette Forum threads.
