94 Black Leather Factory Seat Upholstery Needed

mikec35 · Aug 1, 2014

I am a vintage guy putting 94 mustang black leather seats in my 67 mustang. The passenger is perfect, drivers side upper is perfect but the drivers side lower needs to be replaced. Does anyone sell oem seat leather? I'd like to match what's currently there instead of redoing both seats. Any advice . Thanks.

I sat in my pristine tan leather driver seat with a screw driver in my pocket and it put a hole it it. I ended up finding a Company on ebay that sells the individual pieces made to OEM spec. It was not cheap at 200.00 but it was worht it. Just do a search on ebay and you will find it. I think the sellers name was richmondautoupholstry

TMI products makes good stuff, but for a 94-98 setup you will need to order new foam too. DIY isn't that hard, just time consuming.

Time consuming and tedious. Let the new skins sit out in the sun for a while.

A good local upholstery shop can replace just the worn parts to the seats as well.

Thanks for the replies- so it looks like I'll have to get a complete seat foam set and a complete seat leather set just to replace the bottom foam and leather on one seat. Then it probably won't match my passenger seat. Im going to check with an upholstery shop and see what they can do for me. I also noticed that the seat bottom bolsters are uncomfortable, not sure if it's the worn foam or if the seats are too small for my 260 lb frame. Hate to proceed with the seat bottom fix only to find out they are uncomfortable!

IMHO, the seats are too small. If I could do it all over again, I would have gone with some Corbeaus or looked for some clean 01 or 03/04 Cobra seats for mine.

That said...

Before when I got my 98

After I got done with new ACC Carpet, a full black interior from a donor car and TMI foams/vinyl (yes vinyl) upholstery

That black interior is very nice. I think the seats May be too small. I'm into mine for $125 for the seats and $50 for a bottom frame. I sit on them and I can feel the seat bottom bolsters under my legs, I know the foam is worn but don't really want to put a lot if money into them for new foam and covers if in the end they will still feel uncomfortable. Maybe new foam will add a lot more cushion over the bottom bolsters?

New foam adds a load of padding. It is a very firm foam and you will actually be seated up much higher than you are now. When I originally got my 98, I felt like my ass was bouncing off the floorboards whenever I went over a bump. I mean not quite but you get my drift.

That's the underseat foam they give you. Nothing is very hard to install, just time consuming. I did the whole re-upholstery myself.

With the new foams you get a nice comfy seat, they are just physically small which is a trait of the seat frames themselves.
