Seat Covers

Does anyone know where I can get seat covers for an 87 F150 extended cab. The problem I have is I cant find one that will fit a front bench that the back splits in the middle for rear seat access. Has anyone else had this problem. Also, do they make any covers for the small back bench that can fold into a platform?

I am not sure about if your seats are high or low backs.....if they are low backs then most any auto parts store will have a cover to fit--kind of like an older 2 door hardtop car--they have the split in the front seat.....

Boz,

Where did you or the upholestry vendor get the covers from? I would love to have my 95 recovered in the factory material.

I've always been a fan of the blonde style, typically followed by the brunette. They fit about any seat juust right.

But seriously, you aren't going to find a seat cover for a 50/50 bench someplace like autozone or oreilly's. I was looking for one and the cheapest one I could find was almost $200 once shipping was taken into account. I just swapped to a set of buckets and a console.

Do you remember were you found it at?

I was really looking for a camo pattern but I guess I can't be too picky, especially if their blonde!

Not sure where he got them from, he had a Ford/Mercury sample book using the codes off the invoice sticker (still have it from 92). Only one problem, they didn't have my specific code but they had another sample (Mercury, I think) that looked just like it.

Probably would not have matched as a patch, but as a complete job it looks great and original. Colors were all the same, pattern was just ever so slightly off.

I would imagine that any car upholsterer would have the sample books.

BTW, also got a quote for $700 to do the seats in leather. Oh, well, bet I couldn't get that price now.
