Default 69leather interior?

In my newly acquired 69 the seat foams are bad and desinigrating into emberasing yellow dust. Considering upgrading to leather seat covers from original vinal. This car is almost perfect oem condition. do the door panel inserts behind the door pull handle change between leather and vinal? The inserts now have matching weave with center inserts of seats. also are there any other differances? KNOWLAGEABLE HELP REQUESTED

He's looking for KNOWLAGEABLE help. That must be different somehow.

In any case the answer is no.

Hi Terry,
In 68-69 the option for 'Leather' was just for the seats.
In 70 the option became 'Deluxe Interior' which included the leather seats, cut pile carpet, carpet trim on the bottom of the vinyl door trim panels, and wood grain inlays on the shifter console plate and door trim panels.
Regards,
Alan

Alan nailed it (again) and if you want new foam and covers we have a good sale running right now... Use the forum prices and the 10 percent off discount code. The CA seat foam is now the best on the market in my opinion.

Foam http://willcoxcorvette.com/advanced_...&keywords=seat

No.

A. Turn off your caps lock.

B. Run Spell Check. It's a free down load.

C. Do your homework. Both of these are good:
