My front seats are very worn and need to be taken care of. I have already worked on the motor and car is running great, now it is time to make her beautiful like me. So to start on the inside and work my way out. Is it better to replace the entire front seats due to the seat warmers or just get them redone with new leather to match the interior of the car?
I have tried the seat covers but the universal don't stay put and are a bigger hassle than anything. Any thoughts???

We re lucky to have someone like you on board with us!
try to find someone in your area whos work you can view, the lighter colors are harder to match; of course thats not an issue if you are having all of them done, but if its just one, well it might show. If both fronts need doing, then hopefully they will be good enough you could not tell between front & rear,
GL and keep us posted on how it goes. Hopefully some other kind Gentlema will chime in here with a gr8 referral in your area!

Re: replace seats or redo the leather
Actually I believe I would change all seats but the front are the worst. I love this car and want her to shine like she was made to, but the previous owner neglected her quite a bit. I understand it takes time and money but I truly love working on her, it gives me a sense of worth and connection with my car. But we will surely keep in touch.
