Default Value of stock 08+ seats

Before I bother trying to sell, I was hoping to get a consensus of its worth anything.

As I bought Gooseys full leather set for a legendary price, I now have an excess set of reasonable condition 08+ wrx cloth seats.

Drivers seat - no frame, cushion/covers only
Passengers front - complete, ready to install
Rear - complete

No holes, wear marks or permanent stains.
Minor fading and a bit grubby

I figure it's not even worth the effort to hold and sell and I should just turn the complete passenger into a playstation seat and bin the rest.

Would I be correct in thinking that they are worth fuck all and it's unlikely it would sell anyway?

Any opinions appreciated.

Yes on all counts.

That drivers seat might have a slight stain in the middle where my arse was.

Oh wait, that would be the seat cover in Goosey's car. Anyways I dropped a massive skid in one of them...

I just like looking at them.

I just gave one of mine away for free (MY08 WRX front seat). The guy was willing to pay $70 as he was making it into an office chair for his little brother.

They aren't highly sought after as they provide fuck all bolstering and support.
As Craig said above, you may get any where between $50 to $100 for a set or a single seat.

Nick, I had to get the soil marks professionally removed. Looked like a week's worth of digested food was on there!

All jokes aside, after a clean (no, there were no shit stains), your old seats looked mint. The Alcantara is far grippier than the leather.

Hehe glad you guys are nervous about where my skid marks are.

Goosey you can relax the seats/drivers cover I sold you were straight from Neil Pollocks race car. We used the drivers seat frame from his car to rebuild my broken seat after the crash. That's why it was an incomplete set.

Nothing to see here move along.
