    Thanks

    Look in norcal69 build thread he has a link to some real nice ones. On the spendy side but excellent quality.

    What year or type of seats are you trying to reproduce?

    Can you find a Boat Yard Interior repair shop where you live? I had mine done at a custom car Interior Shop, they used boat material, they look original. Just a Thought, Good luck.

    I recently refurbished the seats on my 64 which would be similar. I detailed the process here http://earlycj5.com/xf_cj5/index.php?threads/156220/ From what I could find, no one makes a seat cover kit that you can buy off the shelf so I used a local trim shop and purchased custom embossed vinyl from a place in California which matched the original factory material exactly. I have saved all the original pieces from pattern seats which I will loan out if you want to go that route. I also have a box of left over springs and support bars. PM me if you want any other information.
