Bench Seat Covers

Anyone have any suggestions on a decent seat cover to fit a '78 bench for around $100? I want to have it redone professionally next summer so I just need something to replace the ratty poor fitting "saddle blanket" type thats on there now till then.

If you're interested in replacing it with another saddle blanket cover, the ones LMC sells are great. High quality, perfect fit, looks great. Stay away from the Autozone garbage, especially the "universal" stuff with the tucked-in headrests. Here is mine, in blue:



Mine has withstood over 3 years of abuse. It also wasn't too hard to tie up. The front pockets are handy for CDs.

No, I believe it only goes about halfway down the back.
