Blazer Rear Bench Upholstery

Hey y'all, I'm sure there's a thread on this somewhere but I'm in a hurry so...where's the best place to buy an affordable upholstery kit for a 72 Blazer rear bench?? I've bought enough from LMC to know they sell a bunch of crap and Classic Auto Parts ain't much better...I think StockInteriors sells upholstery, I bought carpet from them and was impressed but don't know about their upholstery. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Ask for truck world covers. Best we got for original Covers. If you just want cheap, you may look into a upholstery shop make some up for ya. Trevor

GMC Pauls.

I did my interior with his replacement seat covers.
They fit perfect, nice detail in the scroll work and was competitively priced.

Here's a link to the pic's I took while recovering my back bench and 2 front buckets.

Thanks guys. That GMCPauls kit looks pretty solid. I appreciate the offer jaros but I'm gonna stick with the black interior.

BobbyK nice job on the seats! I am working on mine right now. How was it putting the covers on? I heard it's not too bad, just take your time and get the covers arm.

Re: Blazer Rear Bench Upholstery

Ya, take your time is key.
I made a few reference marks on the foam to correspond with the chalk marks that were on the covers.
I started in the center and worked my way to the ends.
