Replacement seat cover

My drivers side seat cover for the base is torn. Is there a place out there to get original equipment replacement seat covers. I don't want to cover it up. I want to pull my seat and replace the factory cover.

Thanks for the reply. I found that thread in my search but it really doesn't give me the answer. They are mainly talking about pullover covers that cover up the existing upholstery. I will probably have to find a local upholstery shop that can make one because $895.00 is out of the question.

I haven't use them but I have a buddy that got a driver's seat cover and he said it matched perfectly. It was on a 2002 expedition (eddie bauer). I think he said it was around $200./seat

If you want a perfect factory match, you will pretty much be limited to a local upholstery shop.

I am personally fine with covers on the condition that they fit tightly and are made to fit that seat perfectly. No generic one size fits all covers for me thank you.

If you want to do only one seat, a local shop woud probably be best. I had a new perforated leather insert done in '06 at a local shop. It matched perfectly and it cost $65.
