Default Seat Covers

Yeah, I own a 1991 Bonneville SSE, and the front seats are beginning to show their age with rips and things. I've been looking for a way to protect these seats from any further damage by using seat covers, but I have been severely unable to find any that fit. Anyone out there have any good ideas/places to check out? Please help

Are you looking for a certain kind. Otherwise try walmart or autozone.

Isnt there a company out there that will specifially make seat covers for a vehicle. It is rather expensive though, like 400$ for only the front. If I can find the site, I will post it up here.

When I had my previous car, I bought seat covers from Auto Zone. They looked cool but felt like crap, so make sure they feel comfortable to.

JC Whitney (www.jcwhitneyusa.com) used to be the place for seat covers...

leather is aiight but sometimes I prefer cloth because cloth seems to hold "Good" smells better and leather on a hot day with a musty **** in your car is no good! and cloth doesn't absorb as much heat as leather.

seat covers? hmmm, I had some of that fur type in my grey boy, liked it ok.

Actually, everything i have tried from either Wal-Mart, or Pep Boys has been extremely unsuccessful. My seats, I have decided, definitely need some kind of special order covers. Unless someone has a better idea for wider-than-normal seats?

Katz skin has seat covers. But you will pay a nicee price for them. But if you feel like changing your interior around I would checck them out.
