my 96 blazer has rips in both front seats..its truly ugly and thats the only part of the interior that needs work......i go to the self junk yard and get alot of parts and sell them around and i was wondering if their is any other leather seats that will fit in the 96 blazer without fabricating

Front seats from any 2nd gen S-series vehicle will work. The floor pans are different in the fullsize trucks..

Any '95+ Blazer, Jimmy, & Bravada. For the S10, I think the body style changed in '96, IIRC...

repairing them can be expensive too. theres a custom upholstry shop near where i live and they quoted me $900 to re-upholster the seat. i have a hole about 3" across and i dont really care how it looks, i just dont want it to tear even more (which it has... a lot) i just wanted them to patch the hole but they said all they would do is take all the old leather off and put on all new leather...

i tried those... FAILURE!

i found some leather-ish feeling seat covers that were the same dark gray/black as mine are now and it had red inserts and it looked really nice. i bought them and put them on and they looked like 5h!+

there was too much friction... you couldnt just climb in and sit down on them. and once you were sitting, if you moved, so did the covers. after returning them, i felt a lot of the other leather ones and they all felt the same as the first set i bought. i didnt try any of the regular cloth ones but after being used to sitting in leather seats the last 3 years, imnot about to switch to non-leather

I found a guy here local that went out of business. He still owns the machines and has the know how. He'll do my bottoms of front buckets for about $200 in a soft vinyl oem color. Mine are tan leather.I think I got lucky. Mmmm, maybe I'll get him to make a pattern, and have it for others
