I recently had my seats recovered. You can have them done to look very factory or take a moment and add a custom touch to them. It might cost about $150 per seat for plain jane. Mine were a fair amount more as I had stitching dome and they were not on factory seats. But if your inside warrants it, go for it. Shop around as prices will vary wildly...... Post pictures if you end up doing it...

Well $200 is not a show stopper amount of money. Getting your interior back in line would go along way to keeping the ladies happy and you proud of your Monte... Here are a couple shots of the seats I just got back last week. $750 for the pair... All custom designed after the 2013 Corvette seat I saw in a magazine., the original Sparco seats were Red and Black. They got all sun faded and such, ended up using my OEM colors and the vette pattern. Kind of refined the whole inside...... Keep us posted as to your progress. Good luck...
