XLT Upholstery

Does anyone here know of a place that I can buy a new (or NOS) covering for my '89 XLT bench seat? It is the style with the integrated headrests (non adjustable) and an armrest. The seat is VERY comfortable, and I'd like to re-cover it, and make it look new again.

I dont know where you could, but subscribing in hopes that someone can tell you, so I can find one for myself too!

The previous owner has a few burns and whatnot in the seat, and it is very comfortable, and that arm rest is kickass, so I would like to use the seat in my project as well.

This place has seat covers that fit different styles of seats.
If you want to reupholster, might not be what you want.

They don't have anything that looks stock there...

I really want to keep the seat looking stock. We really like the original covering, but it's stained and has holes on the driver's side, not to mention the cig burns.

Have you ever went to an upholster shop and inquired? That will be my "next step" when I feel I need to get that seat in my truck. (and if I dont find anything here!)

I didn't pay that much for the truck I'm driving!! Hell, if you add all the parts I've changed out and repairs I've made, I'm only into this truck for around $1100 counting purchase price.

Hey how’s it going did you ever have any luck with finding the oem material for your bench seat I’m currently looking for the oem original material to take it and have a upholstery shop put it on I’m looking for the cardinal red with grey material

I've seen their stuff on Ebay. Is that new old stock or new products they are producing?

What he put in is not distinguishable from stock & it's the impossible to replace blue.
