Hello all,

Looking for opinions/input on seat covers. I came across classic industries and am thinking about doing a dark brown seat cover from them, but I’m also consider the tan. My question is if anyone has run these covers, how do they fit/hold up? I’d also like to hear some of your other suggestions too if you have had good luck with another brand. I’d really like to find a “king ranch” distressed looking vinyl, but I think I would have to venture into real leather and that is out of the budget.

These are the 2 that I am looking at as well as what the interior currently looks like. The tan buckles would look good with a tan seat, but I really would like a darker/distressed finish seat.

Both of those ads say "arriving soon" . That would bother me if I was in a hurry. Better call and see when??

Yeah, that is true. I wasn’t sure if these were new items or what… That on top of not having any reviews… had me hesitant to buy anything before checking out what others thought.

Been there done that! I love classic ind. but like everyone else backorder delays. I got my serapa, Mexican blanket cover on Amazon. There are two on there, one sucks, thin and doesn’t wrap over the top with full material. 2nd one was great, thick like the ones in 70s, and wrapped over the top down the back of seat about 1/2 way.
I eventually just got the whole seat replaced anyway so think about that too.

I bought my seat cover from classic industries about 2 or 3 years ago. It was the dark saddle color. It matched my interior pretty well and was very easy to install. I used the trash bag trick and they slid right on.

The exterior is still a "in progress". The truck was pretty disgusting when I got it so I did the complete interior first. I've done the urethane bushings, ball joints, springs front and rear, exhaust, installed a 700r4, new brakes, tires, aluminum radiator, headers and many other engine upgrades, etc. I'm just now getting to the exterior and bed wood. Hope to have it painted by the end of the year.

And there's also, Eckler's. They are high on some stuff but they cover older trucks, 50's, and they have a lot of stuff and obscure stuff to. Of course there is LMC to for what it's worth.
