My experience is that DoKa front seats are the same as passenger front seats
in material - nothing special for the trucks.  I am pretty sure there is
another van out there with the same seat as your driver seat.

Subject: Question Re: Canadian Vanagon Upholstery

Greetings Listees:
I have an '85 Double Cab with solid black vinyl seats.  The driver's seat
has some tears in it.  The pattern on the seating surface has 1/4 inch
squares (with dots at each intersection) embossed into it.  Can anyone tell
me for sure which other year Vanagon seats would match this?  In particular,
would seats from an '84 (Canadian?) van be identical?  Do any vendors offer
inexpensive
vinyl seat covers for Vanagons, like what is offered for old bugs?  Thanks
in advance!
