Getting different seats for my car and I want to sell these. They are about 4 years old and in incredible condition still. These are the "Classic" Style offered on www.mrmikes.com These have a light gray trim around them with a light gray embroidered Fiero logo crest. The seats will include the tracks so it will be very easy to swap them over in your Fiero. These will fit all years/models Fieros.
I can ship them for about $50 in the USA which isn't bad at all. I will not remove the skins because I do not want to damage them. I don't know how to do it and I do not have the tools.
This set of leather seat covers sells at www.mrmikes.com for $747 Buy from me and you will get an entire set of replacement seats with good speakers in the headrests. I'm asking $450 + S&H - I will only accept a money order for these seats.
I can get better pictures of them tonight or tomorrow.

The camera flash in these last pictures kind of washes out the color of the seats. The black does not look worn at all in person or with pictures taken in the day time.
i noticed some cracking on the side of the leather, Approx how many miles have these seats seen? im trying to determine how soon they would need bolster repair, and how durable they are.
They are extremely durable - these seats are the opposite of light-weight!
If I was going to keep them I would probably expect to repair that one bolster in about 2 driving seasons. I am not the original purchaser of the seats so I don't know how many miles are on the seats, but I do know the approximate amount of years. They have been in the car for about 7 years.
Thanks

sorry, i have to pass, i was going to make an offer, then the wife said CLOTH ONLY, so no leather seats, i prefer cloth myself, but its for the wife's car and i thought she liked leather, but i was mistaken.
I was not going to post, but thought I might speek up a little before you post the pics again (on ebay).
Leather does not last well in car seats. Bacteria from sweat and the harsh enviroment are tough on it. I would really recomend that you use a good leather conditioner to try to re-vitalize the damaged spot that can be seen in the pics. Saddle soap would be a good start on them. Lexol is also very good. I can not tell from the pics, but it also looks like the stitching seam in the butt area is starting to give out too. Possibly it is dirt in the seat, if so, clean it out beofre you photograph. Do not worry about the sides, they are vinyl and tends to outlast the leather most of the time, the areas that need work are the top areas. Another trick to use is to gently rub the stretched areas smooth so that the stretched leather does not show. If you can get them less worn looking I think you will have better luck selling and likely will draw more money on an ebay auction too. You want them to look like near new.
I'll offer you $200 only because they look a bit beat up and and need repair. I'd rather use paypal but I can over night it. how much do you think shipping to 77006 is?

contact me on combining these with your floor mats if you stil have all of them. are the speakers in the headrest still good working condition? Thanks.
Yes these are still available but the pics are kind of deceiving. The seats are out of the car now so I will clean them up to get better pictures.
Sleebie - Yes the speakers in them are good. I believe they were replaced when the seats were recovered and the last time I had the stereo on (last week) they sounded great.
Here are the new pictures. They are all cleaned up now and out of the car.
On the passenger side seat there is a little bit of lint that I didn't see until I was cropping/resizing the pictures. It looks like something white about halfway up the left side of the seat but it is nothing.
Also, the flash on my camera really brought out a lot of the stitching and some of the more mature wrinkles in the leather, but when you look at them in person you can't see any of those wrinkles on the drivers side of the seat.
These pictures really show every flaw that the seats have, but they look much better in person I assure you.
