Has anyone swapped cloth to leather their self? I was thinking about attempting it myself and was wondering how difficult it was. I have removed seat cover before to replace seat heat elements which was not hard at all. I never had to mess with the map pockets though. I would like to use Katzkin, but due to price I was think about these.

Lots of folks have done it, but there are installers out there if you would rather pay someone to do it for ya.

I just finished my swap on Saturday. It wasnt as hard as I thought it would be, but it wasnt a walk in the park either. It took me about a day and half to complete.

That seems like a good price.....I have seen OEM covers for just 1 seat for that much.

I like in the ad how he states:

"usually the factory doesn’t install the leather"......lol

you could probably do it with a few beers and a few grunts. If not then pay someone it probably wouldnt cost that much
