Highlander Seat Restore

[Goat herder]

I've been reading around, and havent found the answer I am looking for. I know I can get the plaid material from SMS. I know that SMS, also carries some less than original quality scroll vinyl in rolls. I need to replace the vinyl, and the plaid material. My question to you guys is : Can I buy a scroll seat cover from one of the vendors, and have the plaid inserts sewn in to make a close to original style seat cover. Are the off-white vinyl Custom seat covers offered anywhere close to original, or am I better off buying the vinyl material from sms, and having my upholsterer make a complete cover? I have seen a few of you, who were lucky enough to save your original parchement vinyl, but I dont think I will be so lucky.

Thank You, for some reason I didnt find that when I was looking. He answered my question about where to get one done. I wonder how close to original they end up looking.

You also might check with Pickupman. He's also a board vendor. He quoted me a price on a parchment Highlander seatcover. It was kind of pricy, but no more than what you're talking about. Not sure if it had the scrolls or not.

I'm interested in the same thing. My center scroll pieces are good, but there are a couple of 3" tears on the driver's side near the door and a hole in the plaid on the pass. side seatback. I'm wondering if the original scroll panels could be reused. I'm afraid the vinyl might be too brittle though.
