Anyone know of a source for replacement seat upholstery?

As the title says, I was wondering if anyone knows of a company that sells factory look replacement seat upholstery. I have redone seats myself before, but I have had no luck finding a place that sells the covers. My padding is good, but both front seats have split apart at the seams down the sides and it looks like crap. Any suggestions would be great. I have found plenty of companies selling leather seat conversions... I just want normal cloth upholstery, its not a show truck, but at the same time I would like the interior to look presentable.

Thanks,
Jason

Dave Smith Dodge, GMC in Kellog Idaho does a ton of trucks with leather refit seats. I used to see stacks of seat covers on pallets outside of an upholstery shop on I-90 just east of town on my travels back when second gens ruled the highways. Inquire with them, you may get lucky.

Last I knew, you could still get factory covers somewhat reasonable if all you needed was the lowers.

I think late last year they were still around 150 ish straight from Ma Mopar.

What color are your seats?

yep, check w/the dealer or the reps they use for aftermarket products, usually someone at the dealer is specialized in this. You may be able to upgrade to leather at almost the same cost. We had a new Jeep GR done for $500, front and back seats w/heat.

Thanks for the Imput, I didn't really even consider the dealer being an option. My interior is brown cloth, with the pattern insert and lighter brown outsides.
