Anyone have seat covers on their 944?

I have some tears and fading on my leather seats. I want to cover them in the meantime while I save up for seats. Can anyone recommend a nice fit seat covers for the 944? Can they look decent?

Sam's Club or Costco. Sheared sheep skin covers $30 each -- charcoal black. A tad baggy at the top but fits great over the rest of the seat.

Buy a new set every year and throw the dirty ones away.

Or use them to cover the chairs in the garage.

Drop by after work tomorrow and check mine out. They are on 86 seats.

When was the last time you changed your timing and balance belts and/or cam chain and tensioner?

Asking if you should replace that timing belt is like asking if you should re-use a condom that may have in hole in it with a hooker.

There are kits available to recover the seats yourself with high quality vinyl you know. If you feel like spending a weekend on them they would cost less than trying to find and ship good seats.

This is what I use for the time being.. $3.99 seat covers fit most Porsches

I just ordered a set of Wet Okole seat covers, won't know how they fit until Thanksgiving though, when I can get back to the car and install them. I have had excellent experiences with them in Corvettes.
