Seats I found today
« on: October 07, 2009, 06:30:52 pm »
I wanted to get some feedback, I found these seats today they are asking $35.00 each. They are in an 85'ish k-5 Blazer 4x4. I plan to put them in my 87 SWB pick up. The seats are worn but i an gonna have them recovered anyway. Thanks for any input.

The foam looks SHOT on one of them.  Replacement foam isn't cheap either, we sell it.

I would think that with no headrest that I would bang my head against the back glass all the time.  IDK, maybe I'm wrong...

Well they are high back, but i mean the bench seat has no head rest so... not to big of a deal for me, looking at 250-300 to have my bench recovered, or buy these.

I bought from an Ebay vendor a high quality OEM style vinyl cover and it came with hog ring pliers.  It was done in an afternoon and price with shipping was around $160.  Turned out perfect and I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out.

We sell those same kits for about the same price.

Those pictured are lowback seats.  The replacement foam for those are around $300.

Those are definitely not 85ish seats.

I dont think any of the blazer seats will bolt up without modifying the brackets.
