Cooler Seat Options? (No More Leather!!)
I've never understood why manufacturers insist on putting leather in convertibles. Its hot. It doesn't breathe. Its hot... At least mine aren't black! :rolleyes: As we approach spring/summer here, I'd like to have something other than leather. I actually like the shape of the NB seats a lot, even if they could use a little more lower back support. I checked out getting the seats recovered in a matching fabric, but was stunned at the cost ($860 plus for the pair, and that was just recovering the seat fronts). I thought about buying a pair of used fabric seats, but they're pretty much only available in black (a nice cool color :confused: Plus, I'd like to stay with tan to match the rest of my interior). Still, I suppose that's better than nothing... I know racing seats are an option, but I'd like to keep the more 'classic roadster' look I've got going, rather than 'racer wannabe' (not a dig on anyone here, but I don't autocross/race). Just putting covers over the leather looks a bit sloppy, and with the leather underneath, I'd still end up with a sweat covered back after a drive.
So... anyone have any ideas? I could probably put new covers on myself, but does anyone even make what I'm looking for? For not stupid money?? I know this sounds like a :cat: thing to whine about, but I hate having my clothes soaked after a drive!
