Looks like a firebird interior.

Firebird has a verticle crease in the middle of the pleats.  Looks like 1969 Camaro to me.

69 Camaro, but a mis-matched set. The passenger side is early 69 (straight headrest bar) and the driver side is late 69 (bent headrest bar)!

And I fixed the picture so you could see it better.

No it is not. 1968/9 interiors are often advertised as 68 or 69 but even where they look the same they are different. Door panels have the lock button in a different spot and once cut, they only fit that year correctly. The picture you posted is obviously 1969 based on the door lock button position as well as the vinyl pattern.
