Yes, contact your dealer to order them.

Any idea on the cost?

It depends on the skins. Have your serial number and the dealer can get you some #'s.

I ordered some for my 05' ZX225 and will have them installed over the winter.

Here are the prices i was quoted (although they will vary from dealer to dealer i'm sure):

-Drivers and passenger backs are $81.59 each
-Drivers and passengers bottoms are $79.87 each
-Center seat back and bottom are $69.23 each

I picked up a pair of seat bottoms but I got lucky as skeeter sent the seat backs to the dealer accidentally. The dealer let me have them for a discounted price which was a great deal even if i didn't need them yet.

I was impressed with my closest US dealer in NY considering i'm from Ontario they were very helpful and sent me the items ordered without any issues.

One other point the skeeter decal on the back of the seats seems to be extra.

Is the material of the skins stronger than the original material. I replaced the lower bottom of my seats two years ago and one is already tearing at the seam. No one steps on the seat and the boat is kept in a garage when not out on the lake. The material is a piece of crap. I'm hoping the new material is thicker and stronger.( Anyone who has made the change) is it worth the money and are they stronger?
Thanks

It looks the same to me although honestly i didn't look that closely... it seems that the seams are the first to go...
