I will print out some pictures of the original seats so he knows the expectation. Even if it ends up costing a couple hundred more it is still a great deal if done right. We will see how it goes.

Sorry, Hayden. I didn't realize that you might have to push the 928 up here at this point. What about the idea that you take the seats out and send them up here on the bus. Then Doug might do the same thing or just send the finished seats back on the bus.
Doug says that, based on the seats that he has done for me and what he expects with the earlier seats, the price to do the driver and pass seats will be in the neighborhood of $1000 to $1500 for the pair. This does not include the back seats in regard to which I told him I wasn't sure what you had in mind. In vinyl or vinyl and cloth, as you propose, the pair of seats will be at the lower end of that price range. Leather at the upper end.
Have I told you anything about the taller center console glove box that I make? I would do one of those with your seat project for $300, in the same cover you select for the seats. $350 in leather.

Any specs or pics? Interested, thanks.

Removed my seats today so I can drop them off on Monday. I was wondering if anyone has any pics of well done six way seats that I can print up for the guy that is doing the seats so he knows what the expectation is.....

That is so sharp Jerry. I'm guessing it uses the same holes as the original? What is the lead time on these? PM me your contact info so I can order. Thanks!

Paul has a lot of custom touches that go above and beyond the standard OEM seat design, but this will give you a good idea of what the pleasts should look like.
The pleats can be tricky. I've toyed with the idea of redoing mine myself but there are some tricks to getting them to stay in place.

Dropped the seats off at a different upholstery shop....ABC Discount Upholstery in downtown Vegas. Ended up going with brown surround, black perforated on the inserts, deleting the tubing edges in favor of French seams with black stitching. Jose the owner was very knowledgeable and had I was able to see his other works in progress.
I passed on the other place simply because the guy wasn't even there when he said he would be. I am now paying 650 but I think it will be well worth the extra 150 and I is still a hell of a price. 5 stars on Yelp as well.

Can you post a sketch of what you might have in mind?
