    They are pricey but they are nice. I bought a set maybe 4 years ago (they only offered them in black then) they were only $300 dollar for a set then. Scott...

    Sorry, I must have just left the site just after posting my comment last night. Yes, the link to the legendary seat cover is the cost for just a single pair of seat covers. Regarding the Suburban Seat link I've no idea about them or the qualitity of their seats, sorry. Thinking on it I do recall that someone on the site here did purchase a replacement seat that was looking very close to the original stock seat and I think that the price was very reasonable. I personally wanted to stick with the stock seat and look of my van so have not check out all the options that one might choose when they modify. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of nice modified vans here, yours included, it's just not where I was headed with my sportman window van. Scott...

    the reason they are so expensive is simple. the covers are the same as super stock dodge seats used in darts and the like. actually when hurst was building the cars they utlized the seats from chrysler and they are a-100 seats. smaller, lighter, and o-e dodge parts to conform to the rules...
