Recaro Classic C Seat Covers

I was Googling for some information on the controls on the Classic C's in my project car and came across this:

http://www.amazon.com/Recaro-Classic-C-Porsche-Genuine-Leather/dp/B00LP3LEMO

Has anyone had any experience with these kits? My seats have cloth upholstery in so-so condition, but redoing them at some point (after the car runs; don't need them much at the moment!) would be a good idea.

He/you has to be joking; I see no way anyone could create a cover for anything without having the actual item or old covers therefrom to go by. There would be no way to scale anything from pictures along.

Well, OK. The clarification about them being able to work from pics means something now. How do you get in touch with them? Is that the place on Amazon or someone different?

Wet Okole is a brand of neoprene seat covers. They are different than the Recaro custom seat cover you posted. That said, $300 for a pair of covers is nuts! I asked my upholstery guy about new skins for my Recaro C and he told me $1200 a pair for leather. He usually gets his skins from GAHH, and charges me whatever they sell it for in their catalog/online. I would guess his cost would be at least $600 for the pair.
