Not aftermarket, but a stock touring seat I got bought second hand and took to my upholstery guy. Faux perforated leather on the seating areas and flat vinyl on the sides and rise area. Had custom stitching done to compliment the stock floor boards and ties into the dash. I was like $300 all in. A custom upholstery shop can do some real magic

; my guy reshaped the stock seat and carved it with a bigger hump like the gunfighter styles and did a checked pattern with the same white stitches.

Yeah it is. I found some of the stuff used on Marketplace. Always check there or ebay or even the classifieds on here. Folks are always getting rid of stuff. The rest I got during the holiday sales. So I saved some coin anyway.

Got the ol RKS out today before the temp drops again and we get a bunch of snow. Recently installed some front and rear Custom Dynamics LEDs and wanted to see how they looked.
