WTB: GT/TURBO LEATHER SEATS

So ditched my plans on recaro seats, for a while.

i am now looking for a GOOD to perfect condition leather seats from a GT or turbo model,
Must be free of rips, tears, cracks in leather, and in very tidy condition,
Rails are not neccesary as i obviously have my own. currently in my car.

Have money waiting,
Shoot me a message or reply what you have!

    How much do you want to spend.
    Might be better off just getting yours re trimmed

    my seats are currently been re covered in cream/yellow leather by previous owner for 1800$
    so re trimming isnt really an option.

    not sure what im looking to spend, will decide that upon hearing what people have,

    I don't mean to take this away from the topic, but read this WTB as I have a pair of what I'd consider very good condition GT import leather/suede seats (doubt you'd find perfect condition ones from a car that's at least 14 years old).
    Was planning to hold on to them in case I decide to take out my Recaro's for whatever reason, but they do take up a lot of room.
     
    What would a good condition pair of GT import seats be worth?
     
    Btw pretty sure the rails/mounts are permanently attached to the factory seats

    Yep, to remove the rails from factory seats you need to whip out the angle grinder . . .

    As most of these cars are over 20 years old, I think you will struggle to find a pair in perfect condtion.
     
    The covers are easy enough to remove if you want to go that way.
     
    I had a near perfect set but drivers side had some light scuff marks - removed the cover (about an hours work) and sent it to be repaired. He replaced bolsters in matching fabric for about $75.
