Help! Seat cover source

Let me say first that this forum is fantastic and I have found many useful answers to other issues. Kudos to those of you who help others and share your knowledge (and learning curves).

I posted this in the Camry section because I think more Camry owners may know the answer to this question and because a company making the parts will probably make far more for the Camrys than the Avalons.

I am looking for OEM (original) looking velour seat coverings/upholstery rather than slip covers. I have "acquired" a '95 Avalon w/ a seriously worn tan leather interior (exposed under-lying foam) and need to replace the seat covers with cloth upholstery which is more in balance with the commuter use of this car and its age. Replacement leather tailored covers appear to be about twice or more of what I would like to spend and frankly the cloth will be more comfortable in the Texas heat.

Anyway, I have found plenty of generic or "universal fit" seat covers and this will not do. The type of covers called "tailored seat covers" appear to be the closest replacement "factory" type and look upholstery and this is what I am searching for.

Searching this site, I found many vendors for leather "tailored" upholstery in the Camry section which look very nice, but the price and the heat here again are the issues.

I have found some eBay Sellers, but one auction could not show actual finished pictures of the finished product to judge the quality and that they are not over hyped universal fit seat covers.

If you know of a source for what I am searching for, I would appreciate any help, addresses, names or websites you mak know of. Thanks.
