Default seat slipcovers

Very creative; note the hemming around the seat forward lever!

This may be a stupid question, but do cab seats have the seat fwd levers on both sides, or are there two driver's seats in this car? My (coupe) seats have levers on exterior sides only. Just wondering.

My 93 coupe has them on both inner and outer sides of both seats. Maybe you have other seats?

I never questioned my seat lever setup since they are on the proper (door) side only, plus I don't remember ever seeing a bucket seat with those levers on both sides of the same seat before - or maybe I just never noticed it. Are there two styles of seats perhaps? Mine are original as far as I know. Why would you need a lever on the inner side of the seat back anyways? My coupe is a '93 as well.

I checked and they normally do have the levers on both sides of each seat. Why mine don't is a mystery

Damian: do you know- are these off-the shelf covers or something custom? The fit seems a bit sloppy, but my bolster is shot and I can't afford to reupholster now.

You'll have to email the seller for info on the covers.

They are called seat chaps. A fairly new product.
