Check out http://www.katzkin.com/05/FC/mainFS.html . I know seat covers sound cheesy, but I've seen these and they are really high quality. Check out the Suedezkin.

FYI: Katzkin is not the traditional seat cover you are thinking of, they are true foam covers. You remove your old seat material before you put them on.

Make sure you don't get the cheap suede, it will fade really fast. Try to get some from an interior shop. I have black suede headliner, sunvisors, and door panels in my show truck. For glue, I use this stuff called Weldwood glue. It used to glue down counter tops and is the best ****. You can pick it up at Home Depot in the adheasives section. All the 3m stuff is crap!

I don't remember, it was awhile ago. Look in the phonebook for some interior shops in your area and give them a call.
