Leather re-upholstery question
#18
Crybicki,...... You can install new leather covers yourself if you take your time. The leatherseats.com kits are a perfect fit and go on very smoothly. They will also provide you with the hog ring pliers and enough hog rings to finish the installation. Start with the back seat first as it is less involved so that you can get a feel for using the hog rings. Pay close attention as you take tbe rings off to get the original leather off and you will understand how to get the new covers on. It makes sense once you start doing it. It takes patience and time but is not hard. I am a physician with a very busy schedule so I set aside time on three seperate weekends to finish. Backseat first then passenger seat and drivers seat last. One word of advice is not to make any holes for headrests or seat controls until the covers are completely on.
If you would like to see how my car turned out you can look at the leatherseats.com website on the vehicle specific pages for the LS400. The pictures of the black interior with saddle color leather are of my car. "Professionally installed" by yours truly. You can handle it as well. Save up for the new leather and install it yourself. You will be very pleased with the result.
Good luck!
