RED Leather '93-'97 Firebird Seats?

Did 93-97 firebirds ever come with red leather seats? If so, I would LOVE to get a set of front and back seats and door panels for my Z.

I know TA's had it because Marcin had it. TA and firebird seats are diff. i just had a chat with leatherseats.com about it. Here is a link to Marcin's car with Red TA interior. Go to Mods, then the interior section. http://www.lt1ultraz.com/

Re: RED Leather '93-'97 Firebird Seats?

Yep the seats are diff. I need Graphite TA seat covers to replace the covers on my TA seats. i saw that leatherseats.com had Firebird seats on clearance. I talked to them and asked them if they were the same and they told me no. The firebirds i think don't have the plastic on the back and they also i don't think have the Rubber webs on the side and maybe a few other things. The guy told me "unfortunately they are completely different." I hope they would know as they have to build covers to fit peoples seats.

Maybe the Formula seats are different too, cause I've got the plastic on the back.

edit: after looking at the above linked pics, my seats are different than those. I don't have the plastic on the back of the headrests, but I think I do have some of that 'cladding' on the side bolsters, etc.

The red leather interior I believe was a 95 only option, and is rather rare by todays standards.

Looks KILLER on a white T/A.
