Early 80s sport seat rebuild kit recommendations

Good morning- hoping to get some recommendations on rebuild kits for a pair of early 80s sport seats. I will need at least one side bolster, and the actual C coverings. Any experience with offerings from our host here or other suppliers?

When I quickly priced things out the kits start a total over $1000 quite easily, and at that point it starts to become easier to have a local shop do them. Anyone been down that road/trade off?

Thanks, and have a good Sunday.

Recommend Tony at Autobahn Interiors in San Diego if you choose to let the pro's do it.

I went the route of a local shop, as the foam on mine has deteriorated significantly enough that I didn't want to attempt to do it myself. Couldn't be happier with my decision, as the seats are now firm and tight, with the original style covers.
