97 Eddie Bauer Seat Replacement

I need to replace the front seats in our 1997 Eddie Bauer Expedition. Most of the online seat cover companies do not fit the Eddie Bauer. Does anyone have a good source for leather replacement?

I'm working on the same thing right now ('97 EB). There was another thread in here recently about it too. My local FLM dealer said the leather and foam are discontinued, so no dealer option. I've done some searching online and found plenty of aftermarket stuff, but I was hoping for an OEM look. I'm going to keep looking. I'll let you know what I find. Please do the same.

I've sent a pm to partsguyed.com. Let's see if he has access to the parts.

This is the winner so far for me. I haven't gotten any response from partsguyed.com and unless I want to switch to an aftermarket pattern, I haven't found anything else online. The bottom for my '97 driver side was $195 from here. Plus they are in Dallas, so quick ground shipping to me.

Local interior shop wants $500 to recover the seat, so this is best deal I've found, although still pricey.

From what I know Parts Guy Ed is still not back to work after suffering a stroke a while back.
