It prolly costs that much to redo sport seats with new foam.

That’s if you have the donor seat already.

im still trying to find this guy a buddy. Every time I put out a WTB locally, someone pulls one out of the swamp and wants $300 for it

Not right now. They would just sit in my way as I have a ton of other stuff I need to get done first. Seats are low on the list.

If I still cant fine one (I just need a driver's 87-89 seat) then i'll let you know

This was posted this AM on the FB groups.

This is the TMI kit over stock seat frame. New covers and foam up front, and new cover over existing foam out back. These were professionally installed, steamed, and glued. As you can see, they look tight, and almost OEM.

I think the TMI kits get a bad rap due to the DIY nature of the seat covers. I've see some BAD installs. Very baggy, loose, or overpuffed. here's prood that some attention to detail can make these TMI kits look VERY good.

LMR makes the seats for the 1994 GT but only offers the full on kit, which I only need the passenger and driver seat. I emailed them and they sent me a message back saying they don’t have just the front and drivers seat only just the entire kit. Then said “you could buy our black vinyl seat covers for your car and not be able to notice the difference”, um I’m not stupid. I know the difference between leather and vinyl and so would someone else if I ever wanted to sale it.

I installed the Corbeau rear seat covering in my car, and gotta say I do like the fit and finish of that kit. It's nice and tight - almost too tight. It's made to match the GTS2 seats, but I used them as a stopgap until I can recover them to match my recaros.

I'd probably pick up another stock rear seat and just recover that. I do have a donor 87-89 GT seat that I would like to recover one day in black tweed just to have a "stock" set of black seats. I figured i'd give TMI a shot.

Call me crazy, but as awesome as my Recaro seats are, I have a thing for the OEM foxbody sport seats.

I loved the sport seats in my '86 GT. Everybody has a thing for Recaros, but I think Ford really got it right with those seats. They're a damn sight better than what's in my '95 Cobra.

If you go directly to TMI's website, you can get the fronts only, in leather

Not a fan of the TMI stuff. The quality is sketchy at best. This has nothing to do with the DIY install. The car has about 500 miles on it with these seats covers installed.
