D2 Seat refurbishment

[msggunny]

My seats in my 04D2 could use some TLC, is there anyone that sells new covers? I can get new foam, but cant find new covers. Dont want use ones as they will most likely have the same brittle plastic that mine currently have.

They replace the original leather.
For the bottom and back, the fit was phenomenal. Headrest was tight (mostly because of slightly different means of attaching the ends of leather), armrest was loose. If I had to do it again, I'd either leave the armrest as it was (they rarely wear badly) or slip the new skin over it.
The reproduction covers have nearly all OEM-specific attachment points.
Colors: I don't know what my truck's original color was, it could have been Sorrel Brown. Beige from their website was the closest color; it differs from the center console, but I could not care less.

I ordered another front kit for my other 95 SWB Classic, and rear seat kit for the LWB. It is sooo nice not to slide around on parts-store seat cover.
