Seat Cover for RT3 and DT3 was created by johnste1960

I have a RT3 and DT3, and the seat covers are identical.  There are 12 full pleat sections plus 1 partial on both seats.
I am looking at seat covers from RYDER68 on ebay. l Lots of good recommendations from this forum on the quality and looks of his covers.

In looking at his listing, I noticed the following:
1) The covers show 11 full pleated sections plus 1 partial section -  Not the same as OEM
2) Its hard to tell for sure, but the pleated sections in the photo appear to be different widths
3) The seat cover shown installed in the listing,  seam overly puffy, again, not a true OEM look

I am hoping someone who has purchased covers from him can respond and confirm my observations.   He is one of the more expensive covers, and has sold many, so I am questioning my observations.

The covers do look like high quality and the stitching looks very nice.  He also has many good reviews.   Thx in advance for your feedback.

Not sure who "other supplier" mentioned is but I've had nice covers come from Pit Replica on ebay....  they have some really obscure ones that nobody else offers.

Thanks for confirmng what I saw and all the additional information.  The RT seat looks really nice.   I have seen both of those vendors on ebay, so its nice to have input on them.
