after market seat covers?
« on: November 17, 2016, 10:52:52 AM »

I need some seat covers for my Capri. The foam is in good condition but the cloth is shot. Does anybody know where I can get some?

I would just look at swapping the seats but my wife likes the ability to flip that lever and lift the seat so she can see to drive.

The beauty of this Capri is the factory cover just slips over the seat and is attached with bull rings. With bull ring pliers it's a simple job. You have to remove the seat. When I replaced my convertible top I ran into a couple of websites that sold the exact fit covers. Here's one of them.

Go here for the repair manual. Scroll down to seats (Group 41) and download it. It has illustrations and very useful. The download is safe.
