Bought some quite nice ones at Canadian = Tire in Ottawa. Name is SAGAZ (available all over Canada = and I suspect in the US). Mine are low key charcoal gray with = discrete herringbone patern. About $70 Canadian = as I remember around $45 US for both fronts.

The store had a video kiosk = display which I've seen in other large Canadian Tire stores showing how to attach them = and for looking up the right part number for your vehicle. Vanagon was listed... = and they actually fit.

Hope this helps.

Todd,

I reupholstered my '81 Westy = camper a couple of years ago, front buckets and rear bench. Sewfine had just = come out with their Vanagon kits. You can find them advertised in any of the VW-oriented magazines.

I called them and they sent their = catalog and fabric swatches. They didn't have kits for the rear bench seat (don't = know if they do now), but they gladly sold me extra yardage in the same fabric = I selected for the front buckets.

Otherwise, a = local upholstery shop will sew the few seams necessary and you can pull them = on and staple them up.

I'm very pleased with the results.
