      I was facing the same problem last year. The driver's seat was showing wear, but the passenger seat was still ok. I wanted to replace just the driver's seat, better yet, just the back because the bottom was still ok.

      Here is the problem I ran into... leather is made in different dye lots. Leather made in one dye lot can be slightly different than leather in a different dye lot even if they are the same tint. I decided to replace the entire driver's seat and ordered new covers at www.classicsofttrim.com

      The new drivers seat covers arrived and were simple to install myself. The driver's seat now looked awsome, so good infact that the passenger seat now looked old in comparisson. It just didn't look right.

      I ended up purchasing the passenger seat to match the driver's seat. Lucilly they still had leather from the same dye lot to make the passenger covers. I have not replaced the back seat, as it looks ok to me.
