Interested in getting leather or leatherette seat covers-- more often than not places can make custom matrix ones, but don't list the Vibe. If I bought the matrix ones, would I be good to go? I have a 2005 Vibe.

Better yet, does anyone have any recommendations as to where I can order some nice custom fit seat covers online?

Looks great-- but is this something that needs to be done by a professional installer or is it something I can throw in myself. Their website looks like it is geared towards professionals.

As far as I know, the seats in the Matrix are the same as the Vibe's. THere is a seat cover place called Wet Okole http://www.wetokole.com/ They have a nice variety of Neoprene cover styles. They're not too expensive and seem well constructed.Dave
