The only other company out there that does Mustang leather that I know of is: http://www.redlinegoods.com/
I have some of there products, but haven't had the time to install them. I had some of their earlier shifter boot and ebrake boot and I wasn't too impressed back then. Amustangrocks really did an excellent job at doing them. Check redline out.

They look ok, but the ones on this thread look amazing. Sure he is no longer making them? Would love to find one.

Caution...the Redline SADDLE does not match our cars. Had to return the item...to POLAND! Not worth it, IMO.

I may be able to copy his pattern and make some, but I am unable to use leather, and could only do charcoal.
I did e-brake boots for members on here some time ago. Let me see if I can make these and I'll let people know and see if there is interest.

Sad to see Mike stopped making the armrest covers. I ordered two: first mod after I traded my v6 in for the GT.
If you feel like you really missed out by not getting one- well you did! Sorry, they are hands down awesome.

Hey, no sweat, considering I haven't bothered to try yet.
Working with leather requires a sewing machine designed to handle heavy material like leather, and those are expensive - and I don't have one. Also, materials are more expensive up here in Canada, especially with our dollar so bad.
Also, amustangrocks' pattern is quite complicated and time consuming. By charging $85, he wasn't making much off each one. If I did it in leather with the proper machine, I would have to charge over $100 easily to make it worthwhile.

When I have time this summer I may try making one. But it won't be leather, there won't be a choice of colour nor grain.
The best that could happen is that amustangrocks finds a new seamstress and gets back in business. But (fortunately for him) Mike has moved on, so hard to say if he will come back to this.
