i have never seen anyone else selling stock covers or aftermarket covers for our seats...they are really expensive too! IIRC several hundred dollars i believe..

I really like the factory seats. I messed up my original seats so I'm just gonna eventually replace them but I don't want to mess with any problems with swapping out the airbags

Now way I've seen members on here swap from cloth to leather from the dealer for less than 2 k. May be that's an accurate price for all the seats with airbags but not covers.

I talked to Mitsubishi parts about seat heaters for my X and they said I had to buy the covered cushion and heater as one unit, only way they sell it.

I remember someone was able to order the leather seats (all leather, no suede like the MR) and was able to switch out the material. They had a part number too, but I can't find the thread. They ordered through a dealership, expecting the MR leather/suede, but got all leather instead.
