I plan to keep this car for 1-2 more years, so I'm not looking to spend a ton of money on it. LeatherSeats.com wants $900 for a vinyl kit, but that looks like it's for front and rear, and I need front only.

Have you checked local salvage yards for full seat replacement?

There are seat covers on ebay and probably on sites like Auto Anything.
