What are some good front seat covers for a 1997 A4

My leather is quite cracked up and not looking good anymore. Can anyone recommend a good brand of seat covers? I see some on Ebay but you never know how well they fit once I get them.

I did a little "Googling" trying to find the company that hand selects sheep skins for seat covers. I have dealt with them in the past but can't recall their name. I'll keep trying to think of it because they make a fantastic product. One thing to keep in mind is whether or not you have side airbags. If you have side airbags we do not recommend putting seat covers on your seats. They can impede the deployment of the airbag in a crash.

How would I replace leather with stock?

The other thing is the black leather is hot. I'd like something that breathes better but isn't cheap and slides around.

Buy new cover.
Disassemble seat.
Remove old cover.
Install new cover.
Reassemble seat.

Takes about 2 hours start to finish.

What do you all carry your dogs in/on? I am looking at the Kozy K-9 seat cover and a soft carrier.
