Let me start by prefacing this by saying this website is no way involved but
i did ask permission first before posting. i'm trying to get a group buy
on leather seat covers for 4th gen. f-body seats. i'm including the email Eric
sent me regarding the prices and options available. the main reason i'm doing
this is the seat pattern i want is from the 98-02 Camaro which is more
expensive and not widely known. They use the 93-97 seat pattern for the Camaro
which i do NOT like. so they would have to do a special order but if enough
people would like to get the 98-02 pattern it would bring the price down. if
you have any questions don't hesitate to call Eric. i would like to start a
listed of interested people and when we reach a reasonable number you can place
your order.

p.s. i have place this info on www.pro-touring.com (http://www.pro-touring.com), www.ls1.com (http://www.ls1.com)

thanks,
thomas

I ask for a photo of the 98-02 seat pattern and this is what they sent me.

now doesn't that look nice. much better than the '93-97 seat pattern that you usually get.

thanks,
thomas...

What do you get for the price posted? 2 fronts and 2 rear seats? Just the fronts? What about color choices and inserts like houndstooth?

I am installing 4 gen front seats in my 1st gen and want to match my ivory houndstooth interior...

I was looking at these guys www.katzkin.com (http://www.katzkin.com) but it looks like their pattern for the new style seat is pre '97...

Also what timeframe are you looking at? My money's not available until Apr/May...

you are correct the seat pattern they use is the 93-97 pattern which to me is boring. the pattern that's in the pic is a special option which is not widely known (big mistake if you ask me). it cost a little more but i think it's worth it.

the price includes front, rears, and door inserts.

goto their website for color choices.
no houndstooth insert, :( which bums me out cause i just found a place has a green/black houndstooth which will go perfect with my dark green interior. now i got to decide if i want to stay somewhat original and use my old seats or update to 4th gen seats and have someone install this houndstooth pattern for me.

there hasn't been a time frame put on it. it's basically get a list of people and when they feel they can't wait anymore orders will be place. trying to get at least 10 people (it may take a while to get enough to be affordable). with me posting this on two other forums and waiting for it to show up on www.ls1tech.com (http://www.ls1tech.com) which it has. i would go there, cause the guy at the company has posted it and will be answering questions.

if there's anything else i can answer don't hesitate to email me or goto the mention site.

thanks,
