if your current seats are black, then you my friend, have some really dirty seats OR a set of black seat covers, or died leather.

LMBO.....As far as I know, in the US, they only came in tan or grey leather. Red was definitely not an option for our cars.

You may have to just suck it up and buy new leathers.

katzkin.com. Cheapest alternative with out going to an upholster shop, unless you want to re-dye it which will wear off eventually. Vendors will occasionally have leather skin replacements on ebay too

I got my seats from the junkyard for a great deal! They're practically new too. Go drop by a Pic-A-Part in your area and you might find a set.
