Carl,
It has been several years, but I had a good shop repair the
seat cusion and just the "wings" on the seatback of my
cloth/leather 89. Cost at the time was $250 if I remember
right, for leather and labor. Now that included taking
apart the stock seats and re-stitching. Just replacing the
covers would be less time consuming.
I think the under $600 price for a new interior is a
bargain...that was front AND rear seats...right?
I would expect a good shop to charge $200 to $400 to install
them, but that is just a guess.
