Suburban seat covers

Ronnie Smith Jr · 09-13-2013, 09:51 PM

I have a 1997 4x4 GMC Suburban SLT 2500 Vortec 7.4 and 4L80E with the grey leather interior. The front seats are starting to tear and rip and I would like to replace the covers with factory covers. Anyone have a source on these, new or used? I have researched online and have found The Seat Shop and GT Covers.com. Not sure of their reputations and qualities. Searched on eBay and local CL as well but could not come up with results that suited me. I also looked into a local salvage yard, he was worthless. Researched Katzkins too. They did not provide the same pattern and the color did not match the rest of my interior. I am hoping not spend a grand for the upholstery and install. The Suburban is in otherwise excellent shape with only 105k miles and I will be holding on to it for some time.

Any insight would be appreciated.

GTcovers.com. I got a set of covers from them for a 98 GMC Pickup and they were pretty close to OEM.

I've used the Seat Shop, great customer service, fair prices and a factory fit.
