I have not ordered from them personally, but World Upholstery always seems to get very positive feedback from folks on this site. If you do a little searching on the forum you will find that they are often recommended.

I remember reading on another forum where one of our brethern was having a problem with World Upholstery seat covers not fitting properly. I think they're working on resolving the issue but it's not quite satisfactory just yet. You may want to try IAP or a local trim shop and see what they'll charge to redo your interior.

I used them for my fiat seat upholstery and was very impressed with the quality. A+ place.

Thanks so much for the input and especially the pics. Just ordered a Robbins top and will get the seats next.

I'm in the process of installing a World Upholstery seat kit. I bought a vinyl top from them and was 98 percent thrilled. It was a very nice top - especially for the $$$.

I am significantly less impressed with the upholstery kit. They first sent me the wrong year set which had to be returned. They quickly sent me a new set for the proper year and apologized for the inconvenience. The new kit's passenger side seat bottom was cut and sewn incorrectly and would not fit due to the error. It was about 2 1/2 too long and wouldn't fit. One of the head rests also was sewn incorrectly. They apologized and are sending replacements. They're due in any day.

None of the anchor points along the edges were remotely similar to the factory mounting points. I needed to modify them to fit...and they don't fit as well as the factory upholstery. The fabric fits slightly loose across the foam creating small puckers in the vinyl.

The first kit they sent, the front and back seats didn't match.

When I'm done, I'll post pictures. Right now, the interior is only 1/2 completed due to the quality control problems.

Again, their customer service has been very responsive and apologetic. I'd just expect that they'd have better quality control. More to come once the replacement parts arrive.

Thanks for the feed back. I was hoping that the fasteners etc would be the same as factory with those plastic v-strips. Anyone have any pics of the covers prior to installation so I can see what they look like? I only want the seats with no back seats as I'm building a storage compartment.
