The seats are different... if your seats needs new leather there are 2 websites that sell the kits to recover the seats.. they come precut and presewn. it is a DIY.. normally the kit is $675 full leather but for our car it is a little more i forgot the exact price but around $860 will get you a kit for both front seats, the entire rear seat all four headrests and the center console... along with shipping and install kit. There is a thread here in the 1st Gen section all about this a few months back. Try a search


www.leatherseats.com

www.autoupholsterykits.com

www.gahhinc.com

www.autoleathers.com

www.shadetreeonline.com

www.katzkin.com



We can get discounts for a group buy... when everyone is near ready we should organize with perhaps a 30day notice.

Yeah Indy... i know what you are talking about i was thinking about doing the same thing myself... The links i listed and do that as well... You can order the kit in two-tone and it doesn't cost more. They even have Ostrich and Reptile skin inserts so you can floss like the Cash Money Millionaires.. LOL

Yeah... I too forgot the name of the CL member who has already done this.
