    Looking to replace my 1982 308GTSi seat leather. Several known sources out there and pricing from $1500-$3500 for 6 pieces (Seat bottom/back/headrest). They all have the stamped horse headrest and some claim OEM leather source. Looking for some honest report backs from purchasers. Cheers!

    Did some research - Tops on Line ("our tops are aftermarket and don't have the logo on the headrest") $1,499

    Try World Upholstery, I'm thinking about reskinning my 308 seats as well. I haven't bought anything from these folks yet but they seem very helpful and have answered all my questions so far.

    Anyone have any experience with these folks?

    Thanks. I too am looking to re-cover my seats. I understand the seat leather replacement kits from Nick Forza do have the horse bossing on the head rests. Anyone have experience with Nick Forza leather kits? What's the quality like? Do they look like the originals?

    Re-Originals - Has raised horse and will look into the embossed horse for the 1982 GTSi series - not including console price about $3200

    After contacting the sources. My opinion if you want OEM product it appears Ferr Parts has the correct match. I would be interested in others opinions or purchased item feedback - thank you!

    I'm interested in what you found, and what you're seeking. So if I understand correctly, for actual OEM, then FerrParts. But for a top quality replacement, Re-Originals doesn't meet the spec?

    Re orig: Does not come with horse unless you ask. They can get the raised horse but they have to source the embossed horse. Both skins and console about $4300.
    Ferr: Has both 2nd gen (embossed) and 3rd gen (raised) skins with the correct horse for each and includes the console for $3300.

    That was the basis for my opinion.
