Replacement seat cover quality
Hi All
Does anyone have info on the Lseat product? I am converting the interior of my 89 3.2 Cabriolet ROW from white to black. It was due and got moused in storage last winter. ![]() When shopping comparable seat covers to replace the fronts, LSeat is significantly lower priced than World Upholstery and Classic 9 Leather. I plan to purchase replacements and have the upholsterer install them. Any feedback on these three vendors, others and/or the front replacement seat covers is appreciated. Thanks

World Upholstery is what my well respected upholstery guy recommends - pretty certain he has done hundreds of Porsche seats.
according to my interaction - World seems like a pretty tidy operation. 6 week wait at this point in time. Pelican sells - best to cash in a 10% discount coupon - otherwise a direct purchase is less expensive. Classic 9 gets good reviews. LSeat? good value, but seemingly second rate, in comparison. |

I've seen some covers by Lseat, bu not their 911 offerings. The quality seems decent, especially for the money. The biggest issue I see is with color and texture matching. they have a very limited choice, with nothing anywhere close to my 911's brown interior or the burgundy from my previous 928. If they had a close match I would have given them a try.
I've heard good thing about World as suggested by creaturecat. I went with Classic 9, and have been very happy with their work. For the 911, I had them recover my leather dash, make seat covers with Pasha inserts, and new door panels with added Pasha as well. My current 928 has Classic 9 (installed before I acquired it) dash, center console, door panels and carpet kit. |

My sport seats for the 911 were covered with black "L" seat. I was very pleased with the outcome

I was going to get the Lseat covers, but their customer service on just getting samples and answers to basic questions was so bad, that I went with another option. Went with Autoberry, they were reasonably priced, fast service and nice quality- I think they resell GAHH because mine arrived in a GAHH box.

All leather, perforated center section with correct stitching pattern. Installed them myself, very happy with the results.

Don't have experiences with Lseat product, but personally i prefer the wet okole seat covers. Although they are not cheap put they'll protect the seat from pretty much any type of wear/damage.
