Default Seat covers

When I first joined this site there was someone advertising OEM style seat upholstery. Does anyone know if they are still available? The seams in my drivers seat bottom are splitting and I would like to replace it.

I have removed the covers and repaired them as long as the leather wasn't torn.

This lasted for almost two years. They are getting new cracks since then but this is a great option for tuning up your seats.

I'm going to check PnP first and if that doesn't work I'll look into a new seat bottom.
