Default Good source for seats for 2001 Disco II

Greetings from a relatively newcomer to the forum.

I've got a 2001 Disco II and, admittedly, I don't know the actual LR color names, but essentially it's Dark/Cobalt Blue with Tan/Gold interior.

I'm trying to replace the two front seats and everything I've found through eBay, junkyards, etc. seems to be Beige and/or far lighter (less yellow) than my current seats.

Any good sources for replacement seats? I feel like I've tried everywhere, but I'm just not finding the right color match.

Suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

-Dave

Your location would help. They are probably pretty expensive to ship. There are salvage guys in different parts of the country.

Sorry about that - I'm in Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Updated my signature to reflect that info for future posts. Thanks, again, for any help.

Not sure, the person closest to you might be Marty (drillbit at discoweb), but he's still a couple of states away in KY. His number is 270 576 7922. I'd think in the Chicago area you'd be able to find a local salvage yard.

Default Junk, junk and more junk

Jafir - thanks for the info.

I've found (and been to) plenty of salvage yards, but none seem to have the color. I even bought seats on eBay, etc. only to see that they were Bahama Beige instead of the 'Tan' that were advertised and the picture showed.

Call my friend Bill at Dorr Auto Salvage dont search the site, call him.
Tell him FedEx Phil sent you and that you.
He has a just in white DII with a blown trans.
With the cost of shipping it might be cheaper for you to drive up and pick them up.
I do not know the color of the seats.
