Well, i bought some new(used) seats for my 91, got them for $175 with the center console. Im selling my other seats(gray ones) for $260 to a friend. Reason im swapping seats is obvious, for colour matching the int. since the gray wasnt cutting it lol. Kind of a "downgrade" from power seats, but somtimes i wish i didnt have the power ones. Most of this morning was used up cleaning these seats, yes they were pretty dirty, but now they look great!!

Cool. I'm not a fan of power seats. The only thing I like about them is the tilt feature.

Those gray seats look brand new, but the interior looks better colormatched.

Feel free to send the snow this way. Were getting rain, and all the snow is gone. Those should look pretty good in there.

Good deal on those, you should have no problem selling the grey ones, making your money back, and then some.

I just picked up some power grey buckets and console too. Have a bit of wear of the drivers, but not to bad, and for $150 I figure I got a decent deal. Just gotta steam clean em and put them in the truck.

That's tight man. Looks real good!! Just don't use armor all cause it dries out your dash :( Mothers is a better product anyways. Thos re the exact seats I got cept not power , I'm thinkin of getting them wrapped in leather, black and a burg red inside. So expensive :(

Not to thread jack, but why is the dash supposed to hold moisture?

Nicely done!

a dash doesn't hold moisture, but armor all will crack and dry out your interior over time. it's one of those things that you will regret using, i know its wayy too greasy to even use as well. just google armor all cracking dash, they say that once you keep on using it on your dash you can't stop. and if you do stop using the armor all product it will lead to dash peel and it to crack. the same as it will start cracking if you only occassionallly use it or so i hear. pretty tricky when your hooked, cant stop buying a product for fear of your dash to **** up :( as well as armor all has alcohol in it :( try meguiars or mothers!
but nicely done man!! sorry to thread jack :(

Seats look nice. I've heard of but never seen, with my own eyes, a dash cracked due to Armor All use. My dash is fine, it gets armor alled maybe 4 times a year.

You may have seen me, trucks got black steel wheels on it right now. Damn I wish it would warm up so I can do my bucket seat swap and get started on a custom console.

Pretty sure they bolt right up.

Interior looks great kenny! BUT if I were you, I would have waited and found seats in better condition. Even cleaned up, the color is not as vibrant and deep as it should be. They look really worn. My Tahoe has the same seats that look brand new and look quite bit different than those. Sorry to be such a d!ck.
