I recently replaced the skins on my '92 with some new ones from leatherseats.com. I removed the OE skins as carefully as any human could, and figured someone out there could make use of them for their restoration project.
With some minimal stitching work, you could pretty easily combine the best pieces of the set to make a pretty nice looking complete seat for a fraction of the price of OE replacement parts.
Not sure what is a fair price, but OE leather swatches for repair go for 50~150, and new OE pieces go for 400~1200 if you can find them, so I figure $300 OBO for the full set is pretty sensible.
Here is a quick description of the condition of each piece:
*Headrests: both sides nearly perfect
*Back inserts: both sides nearly perfect, a bit of a scratch on one
*Bottom inserts: one a bit scratched/creased and rashed on the corners, the other pretty good, but slight rash on the corners and the rear retention clip is partially cracked (not visible when installed)
*Sidebolsters/wraparound: driver side is a bit rough on the outboard side, but pretty good on the inboard. Passenger side a touch rashed on the outboard side, but generally in quite good condition.
All of the pieces are minimally wrinkled/stretched out (better than your average ebay part in this regard I'd say).
Thanks for looking!
