I need to reupholster my seats. They are in bad shape. I have searched and have found nothing. I can find carpet kits, but nothing for the seats. I would like to do it myself to save money, do any of your folks know if a kit that I can buy?

Thanks

 

Not off hand.. but do you have a heavy duty sewing machine ?or are you looking for the replaments covers that you put on after you take old off...if you are looking for new replacments ill have to follow thread i could use some to... now you could... for about as much as what that will cost.. take yours off.. take them to a upolstry shop.. tell them what you want and they will make new ones using your old ones.. and prob look and fit better.. and you can get customized to...i will do some looking later on. see if i can find them

 

If you have upholstrey skills you can carefulley take your old seat covers off and cut them apart at the seams and use that as a pattern to make your own.

 

I do that

 

Re-upholstery is challenging if you do it, and expensive for someone else -- as in $1000 easy. I had a shop re-upholster my motorhome seats and 2 cushions in vinyl and prices were 900-1500.

What about GOOD seat covers, like Iggee or Wet Okle. That sill run you $400-$500 and fit good.

 

Junk yard?

 

Car-Parts.com, Jeep Grand Cherokee seats. Search for leather if you like.

There is a write up on here about doing the conversion, AND you can get power seats in the front.

I've looked and thought about it myself. It's about $100 per front seat in my area, and 200 for the rear. So for 400 you can get a newly designed upgrade with better cushion and power seats.

Think trendy if you don't like spendy. I like to MacGyver mods like this. Adds a hint of unique to your jeep. And it can be done in a weekend taking your time.
