Anyone with aftermarket seat cover kit experience?

[UpstateMike]

I need to recover my cardinal red sport seats front and rear and I was wondering if anyone had experience with leatherseats.com or the vinyl kits on eBay. Your anticipated response is greatly appreciated.

Leatherseats.com or katzkin would be my goto if I was going to buy premadr covers.

Cletonius. I'm unsure if Katzkin has a kit for e30 coupes do they?

[Cletonius]

No clue. I did see a documentary on leatherseats.com that showed their process. If you send in anything, they are able to refurbish it in 2 days and send it back to you. Then they will offer the patterns for others.

I'd imagine katzkin has something similar going on but I don't know for sure.

Ill prob just bite the bullett and go with leatherseats.com. Their product looks legit.

are there oem replacements for vinyl bolsters available? Thanks

[shadowracer]

I have a friend who is a katzkin dealer and he told me a while back that katzkin no longer made a kit for the E30....

Did you do it? How did they turn out?

I would recommend leatherseats.com to anyone looking to re wrap there e30 seats. I re did mine a year ago on my e30 Cabrio front and back, with their vinyl/leather set. Also i added rear headrest to the job when i re wrapped everything, you can choose to add an extra set of headrest skins when you order if you have them. Turned out great and still holding up well. Oem heated seat element fit very well to. Word of advice take your time and make sure to buy a large bag of hog-rings off of eBay to avoid running out half way through like i did.
