Hi.
I have an 88 8 valve. It had cloth seats and the driver was toast. I only got one quote to redo it and one shop said something like $700.
It might be easier to find a matching cloth seat at a parts yard and swap it in. That'd be the cheap and easy route.
In the end I put in leather seats. I couldn't find any older syle leather seats to swap in so I rebuilt my cloth seats. I got some contour foam from an 86, and then bought two buffalo grey leather skins off of e-bay for about $150 each. Using my cloth seat frames, I rebuilt the front seats -- had never done it -- in a couple of weekends. For the back seat I bought one at a used parts place for $100 complete with headrests. I've been happy with the results.
