Here is another place you can check on, but I believe that you'll find that they are a little more expensive.

Sometimes that sell off of Ebay when they have an over-stock situation. Their over stocks always seem to be in Black, and I have been looking for a some in tan

Leather kits are not cheap, if you want to spend less money get the vinyl, you could check around the local shops and probably get it about the same price installed, but it's not cheap.

Don't take this the wrong way, but since you even considered using vinyl in your car, I question the level of respect you have for yourself and your vehicle. Vinyl belongs on a mid-70's Volvo station wagon, not on a Z.

I've heard the quality from leatherseats.com is excellent. It would be worth it to me to spend an extra 10-15% to get a good fit & good quality leather.

Yes, importsextreme sells excellent leather, I havnt gotten the seats personally but I know someone who has, and the leather wrapped steeringwheel service they have was excellent.

Yes

i just got a new leather wrapped steering wheel from Importsextreme. My old one had looked like gophers had been gnawing on it around the top. I have to say, they did a wonderful job, total cost was $318.00. I think the Car dealership will gladly charge you 600$ for one. If you are short on money, id say its time to hit the junk yards and try to find one that is in good shape.
