Smile I need some help for my friend (finding seats for a IROC z28)

My friend is graduating this year. He's a great kid.
He owns either an 86 or 87 IROC Z-28 camaro and this car is his life. He cant afford to do a lot to it and the interior is falling apart, especially his seats.
I was thinking it would be nice for me and some friends to put together some money and buy him a pair of seats.

The car is blue so blue seats would be really nice.

Do you guys have any suggestions? I am looking for in the price range of like 300 ish dollars. I dont really care what brand they are, i think he would love anything.

I looked around ebay but i cant find anything.

so help me out, what brackets/seats/sliders would fit that car? and do you have any suggestions for seats in that price range?

Thanks so much!

Are you looking strictly at aftermarket seats, or have you considered OEM/OEM style?

If he's that into his car (especially with the older domestics) he'll likely want something matching the car's style...nothing would be better than NOS (and no, not ) seats, IMO.

OEM would work too. Yeah i see what you mean by that. He would probably want it to be the same. Any ideas?

I bought a set of leather racing seats for the evo on e bay, can't remember what the name was, but I think they were like 250 ish.. they were pretty nice. I would definately check there.

Have you checked out www.LS1tech.com? I would imagine that some guys over there could point you in the right direction. GL!

Definitely a good idea, that or (for a more specific forum): http://www.iroczone.com/

Have to register to even see the forums though, apparently. Seems to have a fairly active classifieds section (there's an IROC or two being parted out in there, actually).
