I had a leatherseats.com kit on my 95 supra and the quality was great. It was about the same as the leather in my sc now but was fresh! I did not install them myself but I know the seats had to come out and be taken apart.

First off thanks for all the compliments! The seats really do change the look and feel of the car.

Installation was about 6 hours for the rear and 4 for the front I recommend doing it on separate days. i.e. rear's one day and fronts the next. (your hands will get tired) it was obviously a learning curve and I was very cautious taking off the leather since I was selling the old leather. Cost is $495 and worth it! t is made out of pleather and Leather combo as is the OEM interior. Seat color is called Sand Stone i believe but, leatherseats.com will be able to tell you.

As I said Durability is Excellent but, you will need to keep up on the clean well, if your as **** as I am.. Wearing dark denim will discolor ANY light color leather interior but, it is easily taken care of with Lexol leather wipes and conditioner.

Jadu - Sticky? I don't know what your talking about to be honest. There was NO glue on my OEM seats. Perhaps yours have been replace before?

It is an RX steering wheel

there is no "pocket" for the radio it was a custom molded piece of plastic.

I do not have seat warmers but, i wouldnt see a problem at all since these are the exact same thing as OEM.

Installation was with Hog Rings like the OEM

The center console trims and e-brake are all OEM black.

These are NOT "seat covers" the are OEM replacement. The exact same thing you take off is what you'll be putting on.


I hope i answered everyone's questions..

Oh, here is the pic of the outside.. Yes, it is Teal Mist and was a Full conversion to 97. well, now with the new leather "07"

How did you get them so cheap? I went to their website and the cheap I could find them with black leather, double stitching and perforated was $734 with shipping

I also have a leatherseats kit (non perf) and love it! For the price, it can't be beat.

I do wish I got the deluxe kit with the leather sides for the rear. Oh well, nobody sits back there anyways.

Looks great! I'm a huge fan of the perforated material.

Did a shop mold the stereo surround or is that something you did?
