George, Carl,
Not necessarily! I had a broken (TR7) drivers' seat frame and torn cloth on
both seats, but the vinyl parts were okay. The upholsteror replaced the
cloth sections and transferred the drivers' cover to a 2nd-hand seat with a
good frame and bad cover.
The refurbished seat covers aren't quite stock, but it was a good, cheap,
and effective job: $100 for old seat, $100 for the work. To prove he was no
mug, the guy showed me a Porche 911 he had completely redone in leather for
$5,000!
