I just installed my Victoria British seats two weeks ago. They are nice for now, but I think I would have chosen the Racing Beat one's over these. Vic. British only offers a few colors, but I think RB will make almost any color/combination you want. My main gripe about the VB seats is when I ordered the Rust colored seats, I thought they looked more like brown. Now I have rust colored seats in my brown interior and wish I had known about RB's seats a long time ago. Also, the two stiches along the back of the seat are a little different than the factory stiching. I don't regret getting the VB seats, but wish I would have gotten the RB ones. Installation is pretty strait foward, but you deffinately need an extra set of hands to be able to stretch and hog-ring the upholstry.

Seat Covers
I was planning on buying these Seat Covers also in a Brown to Dark Brown Color also But like you we never seem to be able to match the Original Colors in our cars no matter what interrior upgrades we are trying to accomplish.
I'm lucky cause my Seats are still in pretty good condition,(No Tears But Getting Thinner). They will need replacing some time in the future and saw these and was curios if they where worth the$$$.
Thanks

I've been eyeing up the RB seat covers, they just started selling them on their web site a month or so ago.
If you get the special order version you can have them look just like the stock ones, I think. In my case black vinyl with the woven vinyl inserts similiar to the stock seats I have now. That vinyl weave on the inserts is the part I've never seen offered before. I'm going to ask for swatchs of the black vinyl and the black weave before I order to compare with my stock seats. If the match is good I'll get some later this year.
BTW, RB does a great job offering quality goods. I'm not affiliated in anyway, I've just bought a lot of items from them over the years and they always deliver. So if you think the price is a bit high, just think, do you want rust colored or really brown seat covers :-)
