Default Original seat covers - where do I find them

I have an 82 Coupe which is in great shape except for the front seats, which are worn through particularly the side bolsters. I would like to restore the car as much as possible with the original cloth seat covers - if I can find them!

I will try to post a picture of a front seat to give an idea of the extent of the problem. The back seats are in pristine condition. As you all know the seat cover design is relected in the inside door side panels. Changing the front seats to a different colour/texture etc. would mean replacing the side panels and the rear seat covers which I prefer not to do.

I am therefore looking for good sources and ideas.

Default You can get them recovered in a local uhp. shop>>>

However when they see ya drive up in an old audi, their thoughts go "Ka-Ching!"

Take them out of the car, and take them in, and I wouldn't pay too much.... 'cause I'm a cheapscate.
