Help needed: Cherokee XJ rare interior

Masinistul

New member
Hello everyone,

My name name is Alin and I`m from Romania. Last summer I`ve bought a white 1991 Jeep Cherokee XJ from Austria that proved to be a bucket full of rust (although I paid a premium for it because it was advertised as a rust-free survivor with 130.000 km, but that’s another discussion). It`s a white 2 door version with the Renault diesel engine that was initially sold as a two-seat commercial vehicle for taxation reasons.

Anyway, under the seat covers I discovered that the rear seat is not matching my burgundy (Cordovan) front seats (it`s actually a cloth/vinyl grey bench from a Laredo), and because I`m completed restoring the car (the rust issue was already fixed), I`m looking for a matching rear seat. The problem is that I couldn’t find anywhere a Cherokee with a similar interior, not even e single picture on the internet. I`m searching for months now, but I simply don’t want to change the full interior with a more common one just to match the seats with the bench.
So I`m asking for your help: have you ever come across to a similar looking upholstery? I`ve seen the same pattern in grey, but never the burgundy one. Please reply if you know anything that could help. Thank you!

Welcome to Jeepz.com

Those seats are in really good condition, I see why you'd want to keep them.

I see your front seat for sale on ebay here:
Jeep Cherokee XJ 84-95 Front Passenger Right Seat Burgundy OEM FREE SHIPPING | eBay

You may contact the seller and ask about the rear seat.


I also noticed this listing with a burgundy rear seat in the background:
84-96 Jeep Cherokee XJ Front Driver Passenger Rear Seats Maroon/Red OEM NICE!!! | eBay

$2300 US isn't cheap, that's for sure.
 
i have seen that color and design in a few cherokees. i bought those same front seats to put into a comanche i used to have because the truck was the maroon interior but had a bench instead.

its a rare color though
 
There are 3 or 4 patterns of burgundy interior. None looks like mine.

Those prices are obscene, considering that there are so many cars in junkyards from where you can take parts in better condition at a fraction of the cost. Too bad I don`t live in the US.
