Seats used vs. recovering
What is the average price for ZR-1/Sport seats cost?
I'm trying to figure out if I should have my current seats recovered and put new foam on OR buy a set of nice used seats. Thoughts from the folks who have done this.

Re: Seats used vs. recovering
I also bought 95 Sport seats online. Much more comfortable.

Re: Seats used vs. recovering
I want to stick with the early style as I think they look better and fit me snuggly.

Re: Seats used vs. recovering
If you like your current seats. I suggest getting them redone

Re: Seats used vs. recovering
I was curious if buying a set of nice used seats would be better than getting new foam and seat covers.

Re: Seats used vs. recovering
I would buy good covers and foam and have the seats redon by a pro. I've seen a lot of horrible covers installed that look baggy, wrinkles ect.
