Default Lexus OEM seat covers

Hi guys,

The interior of my 2000 SC300 is in great shape, except for the drivers seat. Do any of you know if Lexus sells the leather seat skin for this or is this another one of those things that have been discontinued.

Thanks

You have any pics...it may not be that bad, you could purchase a leather repair kit and D.I.Y. there's a few vids on youtube, and in most cases there's kits to match OEM colors? I would go this route if all your other seats are in still good condition? Either way, GL and keep us posted.

Keep in mind the shades of the grey or tan might be a tad off.

Yep, go with the previously stated site and you'll be alright. Any upholstery shop can fix your seats and make them like new. A worthwhile upgrade in my opinion.

well it depends on how the seats are damaged. If it is just a tear then yes they can be repaired easily and fairly cheaply. But if the leather has shrunk and has begin to separate than you will need to get new covers which can be pricey. A good friend owns a upholstery shop and we are going over options for my seats, my driver and rears have shrunk and split.

So, can I assume the Lexus dealer will be of no help here?
