Check out http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2440793190 What seats are those? They're half leather/half cloth?

These are the seats that came in the LS series (FWD) I believe.

It's not real leather either, it's the fake stuff.

Yep. I had those seats in my 95 L model until I replaced them with the fake leather/fake suede versions. Pictures do not do justice to how ugly those seats are up close.

One thing people don't notice initiallty is that the vinyl on those seats is a much lighter shade of gray than found on the leather or vinyl/suede seats.

They're definately ugly, glad I have my leather although I think I would like suede/real leather best.

Hey!!! That's my interior!! I dont think its that bad in light grey. How ever I would prefer to have the suede/leather and suede trim. But I dont like all leather. Never have, never will. I dont like sitting on the slick leather.

Watch it. They look 10 times better than leather that hasn't been taken care of 100% plus you get the real benefit from the L and LS in that they didn't put in the fake wood sans Buick Century 1983.

I totally agree. The worst combo would be the fake wood trim with the cloth seats. Ouch.

When I bought my SVX, I didn't want leather, wood trim, sunroof or automatic seatbelts. So I bought a 95 L AWD. What I didn't like in the L was the rubber steering wheel/shifter and the cloth seats. I swapped out the rubber steering wheel and shifter for leather versions a month after I got the car. It took two years to finally get around to swapping the cloth seats covers for the suede versions. It was a pain, but the final result was worth it. If I lived in a colder climate I would change over to heated mirrors. Except for a couple of ski trips, I would never make use of them.

My leather's in good shape and I polish my wood.

None of the interiors look bad compared to most cars of the same year, I think my ideal choice would have been the newer version of the wood with the leather/suede seats.

I have the leather suede seats

I rock

My ldark gray leather was too old cracked and had a hole on the drivers side, to salvage......so

I bought two hides on eBay and had them reupholstered

Now I have a unique black and dark gray front seat combo and they are GORGEOUS and the new leather smell is great.

Each huge hide cost $65.00 each and the reupholstery was about $500usd: I've got lots of leather left over too

Be creative.....its worth it!!!

Sounds sweet!

I'm still waiting for pics of VR4 wheels on an SVX

I hate misinformation.

Those are the seats that are used in the 1994-1997 L model SVX. NOT the LS. They are also used in the 1994 LE model.

bthomas- I dont know how you can have a 1994 LS and have these seats.

benebob- The LS DOES have the fake wood trim. Only the L does not.
