    Another one of those leather front seat change-outs. There must have been more of these than I thought.......

    Ya can't really call it "mint" when the seats don't match.........

    ...."In Great/Good shape with front seat swap" yes, but mint, NO.

    oh those options

    I like that they included a photo of the dome light ! How often do you see that ? (y) When we ended up with our 86 Colony Park, one of these in blue was under serious consideration.

    I e-mailed the seller and she said the seats were ordered that way,
    "so when the kids spill it doesn't stain".

    Seems a little odd to me.

    I've never heard of a 50/50 seat option. You get one or the other - not both. The only exception on this is some wagon third seats (like mine) where the regular seats might be cloth, but the third seat is vinyl.

    Oh yeah, I'm sure! :yup: Actually, I should have said they came that way if you specified vinyl rear seats. I believe '85 is the first year for this. This was a no extra charge option for both the Electra and LeSabre Estate Wagons.

    Who would have thunk? Strange, yet some what practical option when you think about it.
