1st question: The Standard upgrade for leather for GS has already been included, correct?
2nd question: Because the seats are already heated, is it a requirement to replace the seat heaters if we upgrade leather, or is that just a replacement thing?
3rd question: How much suded would i need to do a headliner in a '99 GS400?

Din: E-mail billc@leatherseats.com with your mailing address and your request to see the Orange swatch. He will get that out to you ASAP.
sdastg1: The base price on the fronts only SC kit is $579.00. So the discount levels would basically be $100 off all the way down the line. I would suggest getting the front and rear though because, as you already had some thoughts about, the matching wont be exact. Our Sandstone is VERY close to the factory color, but since all these SC's normally have about 10 years or more of use on the seats, it is will be impossible to match that exactly. If you e-mail me at jeremy@leatherseats.com I can send you a picture to show you what a seat that most people would consider to be in "perfect" condition looks like compared to brand new leather.
JohnGS4: With this new format, you are correct in that we have already added the premium leather upgrade that I required with previous group buys. So that is the final single tone price across the board. The fatory seat heaters can be reused, however since on the newer GS's the seat heaters are sewn into the covers it does take a little more work then most factory seat heaters to reuse. If you take it to be installed by a shop just make sure you tell them you want the factory seat heaters reused, and if you install them yourself then I can let you know the process of reusing them. Its not that hard of a job to do though. I am not 100% sure on the suede headliner, but if you took some rough estimates I could probably tell you. I think I used about 1.5 yards on the 1st Gen GS headliner that I did. So 2 I would assume should be plenty for the headliner itself. Now I think the A B and C pillars are also headliner material on the GS so those would need to be wrapped and you will probably need about a yard for that also. So my educated guess would be right at 3 yards would get it done.
TexasGS: Yes we do installs here in OKC. E-mail jeremy@leatherseats.com if you would like to find out any more information on that. I dont know anyone in the Dallas area off the top of my head that does installs, but I know there are quite a few trim shops in your area that you could take it to. If you look up, Automotive Upholstery in your yellow pages there you should be able to find quite a few. Just call them up and tell them you have a presewn leather interior kit for your 2001 GS that you would like to have installed and see if they can give you a rough estimate.
OutlawTita: I will put you down on the list as #1. I will probably run the group buy for about a week or two and then we will place all the orders and start building.

Din: That is correct. I will announce the final day well in advance of actually closing the group buy, but please dont wait for the last day because others that are "on the fence" about buying need to be able to see that there are plenty of people joining. Then they will want to join also.
We have never had a group buy on ClubLexus that didnt go over 20 people so I expect another very successful group buy this time also.
