Steve,

Even though one of my Best Friends does Interior work (he's very slow) and I can do most of the work, I prefer to use a shop in Tampa called Cimo & Cimo (813-975-0009 ask for Tom). They re-did my Rare Houndstooth Factory Porsche Recaros - They did a great job.

The only thing is I don't know your budget, I would think they would charge about $275 - 300 per seat.

Also, try the boat shops. It's their slow season and they are looking for business. I found a good local one in SoCal and he did my whole dash (upper & lower w/ Carrera stiching) and the backpad for $550.

Some local community collages have upholstery courses that do excellent work at a great rate.
