Probably won't get a whole lot of replies on this one but...has anyone bought something like this? If so, i want to know how they worked out for you.

I have leather seats that aren't in the greatest shape. Getting them reupholstered even in vinyl is going to run about $600 and i don't want to spend that much. I can get custom covers for about $160 a pair.

I never bought any, but one of my co-workers got a set for his car (older BMW) he's happy with them, had them for about a year now. I found them quite comfortable.

Depending on what kind of car you have... you can find used seats in good condition at astonishingly low prices. Look on ebay.

Thanks for the responses guys. Yeah, the thing is, I have a Toyota MR2 and its got these really nice bucket racing seats that are apparantly really rare. I have looked everwhere for a replacement but can't find them. I've seen torn up, crap condition MR2 seats on ebay for like, $400. bah. anyhow, i think i'm going to invest in these custom Neoprene seats.
