i dont want the covers just the material

red69ss · 09-20-2007, 10:33 PM

found some the other night through yahoo search place was called miamicorp.com

67_C-30 · 09-20-2007, 11:52 PM

I checked into that at a local upholstery shop and he said the houndstooth is very expensive material, and that if I could buy a new cover for $350, I should jump on it. He said he couldn't touch for less than $450.

70c10 · 09-21-2007, 06:48 AM

Did you ask your upholsterer if he can get it?. What color are you going to do your seats in?

He already had some black and white. He also had some orange and black. I'm thinking about going with black and white in mine, but if I do, I'll order one from LMC for $350.

If I were you, I would order it from one of our board vendors! Their price will be cheaper than LMC also.

cdowns · 09-21-2007, 08:46 AM

the original style houndstooth is somewhat pricey however the last seat i had done i ended up getting a tweed very similar from my local upholstery shop for quite a bit less than the original special order houndstooth

ChevLoRay · 09-21-2007, 12:39 PM

Looks like a decent website. I requested a sample of the black cloth that my truck should have, to help me decide whether or not I want cloth or to simply dye the '98 Tahoe 2nd seat I have (leather) to match my interior (black).

decisions, decisions, decisions.....

red69ss · 09-21-2007, 01:34 PM
