[QUOTE="Lawrence, post: 1451764, member: 17912"] If you were in SoCal, I'd send you to my uncle, a very experienced and well-known auto upholster (featured many times in hot rod and similar mags back in the day). He's done one m/c seat cover for me years ago (not the FJR) using high quality scrap black leather he had laying around... so, I also recommend getting multiple quotes... upholstery supply prices have gotten crazy in recent years, so hopefully you'll come across someone who has the right material already (the JFR front seat doesn't take much material).. presuming keeping cost down is prime motivator I'd expect a recover to be cheaper than the $200 on eBay currently for a good used front seat and $500+ for a new seat Also on eBay is - $49 OEM seat only covers?? and an almost new Sargent front saddle, from seller in San Leandro...
