Re: houndstooth bench seat pictures

Zoomin - the parchment with red looks fantastic. Did you buy that seat cover, or was it custom made? My truck is the same red, and I have been thinking about parchment with saddle, but I really like the red.

Thanks!
It's custom, but about the same price you would get one from one of the vendors. I'll send you contact info via PM.

That upholstery is from the Highlander package. Unfortunately, those covers are not reproduced, but the insert material can be found in a few places.

Re: houndstooth bench seat pictures

The reason you had such poor luck finding a picture of a brown houndstooh bench seat is that GM didn't use the "saddle" houndstooth color on bench seats from the factory. Just on buckets, like in a Blazer.

cool thanks MT, i definitely had bad luck!
i have the LMC catalog and it just had a small picture without any detail so that kinda sparked my curiosity to see what the actual material looked like,

honestly, i have no clue. the unit was in the truck when I bought it last year. I would love to know what it is. the face was chromed plastic that had aged bad, but i scuffed it and painted it bright silver. It will run you out of the cab on those 85 degree days.

Re: houndstooth bench seat pictures

I'm pretty sure it is a TK unit. PM me or maybe start another thread about it and I can give you a little more info. We had one in our 70cst.

Nice seat by the way!!
