Buy direct from Legendary.  I called them and they shipped everything I needed.

Best to wait until you can find them on sale. Legendary has an annual winter sale in Dec/Jan  good for 15-25% off. They do have a 4th of July sale now, but I don't know what the discount is.
Legendary products are sold by other vendors as well. Again, watch for sales!

If you have a post car the interior parts are not available from anyone. Rear seat width is different from the convertible and hardtop. Front seat covers have a  different pattern. Door panels are completely different than the hardtop or convertibles. SMS is probably the only place that could make an interior set for the post car. For a reference on SMS ask Mark Ascher.

WOW,thats what I thought.The seats I have which look to be original have no buttons.Parts place shows 2 differant prices for a post vs coupe.I called legenday yesterday and they only showed one .So i called the parts place and they couldnt tell me why the prices were differant.the door panels and quarter fillers on the parts car i bought are very good .Seats arent bad but interesting????Hmmm I may just keep what i have .here is a picture untouched as picked up Nice shape really but not perfect by any stretch Are these correct???

Those seats have the correct pattern for a post car. You might actually be fortunate in that your car has a black interior. Easier to match. Every once in a while parts car come up that still have interior pieces. The post interiors are actually from the Special so you can look at those also.
