Picked up some leather buckets for the truck

Our local pick n pull place had a 50% off sale today so I went early this morning.

My main goal was a set of leather S-10 blazer buckets for my S-10, which I did score for $35. I only need to do a little touch up to the driver's seat and they're ready to go in my truck as is, they're even the right color I've been a couple times already and no luck on the seats until today

I'd seen these when I came in but hadn't really thought about taking them until I was on my way out and I decided to sit in them. They were in a 98-ish suburban. 30 seconds of sitting in them and I knew they had to go into my truck. They are full power, with heaters, on BOTH sides. I plan to keep all of that functional. I paid $44 for these. The price difference was some BS with the brackets being power? Only one S-10 seat was power and both 'Burb seats were.

The PS seat could actually clean up and go in the truck, but the DS seat has a few tears and some heavy wear marks in the leather. However, there are quite a few very affordable seat cover options for these seats. The important part for me is that the seats started out as leather, they're just so much more comfy than cloth, so even if I get the synthetic covers, they'll still feel great on the old back and butt.

My current seat is torn needs a new cover and hurts my back on long trips, and for less than the cost of a new factory style cover, I'll have some super comfortable seats

Yes, my garage is very nasty, I've been cutting baseboards and trim for my house, makes a big mess.
