    How Much Are Seats Worth?

    I plan to buy a set of front and back black vinyl seats. They're in amazing condition, but I don't know how much I should expect to pay for them.

    Anyone else know?

      sorry I meant to say that...they're non-sport

      I know, it's wierd to be swapping in non-sport seats...but mine are in such terrible shape that I'll take anything I can afford =)

      also I plan on putting a nice "racing" seat in the driver's place so I don't care about the rest of them being unsupportive

          you know I'd be all about sport buckets....but it's not like that with me. I wouldn't know where to begin getting 25.00 seats....so my buddy lives 5 minutes from me, and is selling his vinyl. I'll take em! Just need to know a reasonable price for them....

            $75.00 a seat from most junkyards. Offer him that and bargain. There are a set of E21 recaro sports for sale another board that are leather.

            He wanted $450 for them. I laughed, As I have 3 sets of nice seat so there was no way I was paying that much for them.

              75 a seat...plus 25 for the back or what

              $175 good for non-sport black vinyl ALL seats??

              I would go search at a junkyard....but really these are in sick condition. the bolsters on other seats are almost ALWAYS worn.

                If you have sports now, you can use his non-sports to make new bolsters for the sports. Then some nice cloth or alcantara centers in the front and you're all set (just use the vinyl in the back).

                Inexpensive, and you could get some good $ for them if you ever move on to racing seats.

                    my current seats are also non-sport, they're just tan cloth and ripped to shreds. which is why I want to know a fair price for these seats....anyone want to confirm $175 for me?

                        On eBay, around $400-600, maybe even more than $600, you never know.

                          And if you had special seats they might go for this cost... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=7929093992
