73-77 bucket upholstery

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I scored a set of these buckets last year and would like to reupholster them to original.

The thing is, I haven't been able to find this specific year of vinyl. I know that I could use just 69-70 or 71-72 vinyl and call it a day but I like the look of that chrome square etc.

Thanks!

Those Medallions aren’t sewn in. They have a backing plate. But they can still be used regardless.

Re: 73-77 bucket upholstery

Here’s the link for those covers from USA1 Industries. Then when you get your covers, you can put your Medallions on the new covers.
