Strato Bucket Accessories

Anyone order these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/111279803275

Just wondering if anyone has seen them and whether they are worth buying as replacements. The price is right but I obviously want it to look good as well.

Thanks,
Randy.

They're the same pieces sold by numerous Olds, Chevy, Buick, and Pontiac vendors for around 170.00. As example, check Parts place catalogue, use bucket seat as your search.

Yes, I've seen a few vendor's claims that one sells them with better grain patterns and higher quality plastic than the other so was hard to tell for me.

Thanks for your input,
Randy

Vendors will always try to lure the buyer with a claim like that. So in the long run, the only way you'd be able to compare is to buy a set from every vendor. Then, you'd find that 'better grain' means 'better than a scuffed up set of old ones. Haven't heard anyone speak on the quality or fitment issues, so it's likely a decent reproduction part. The fleabay price is decent - ask them what shipping will be, that'll likely make or break the deal.
