I went to 4 salvages last Friday that said they had good leather seats for my '98 Expy. They were all the same. The front bucket seat bottoms were trash. The helpers at the salvages all told me the same thing: as soon as a vehicle comes in the first thing they do is pull all the glass which lets all the rain in. Years ago the better salvages pulled the seats to resale them. I guess they aren't a big seller these days. The good news is one of the expys had a good passenger vent for mine. It only cost me $20!! I think I'm in the wrong business.

I've been scanning the parts section of craigs for several weeks. I'm sure a good set will pop up eventyually.
