For me about two years ago now, Camel/Saddle Interior. Because the Seat Heaters are sewn into the old cover, they have to be removed and transferred over to the new ones. Plus, you need the rear Headrest usually because they shrink so bad. I was at $750 for installation here in SoCal. You may be able to find it cheaper in your area. The replacement covers from L Seat were $350 for the the front seats plus center console plus an additional $50 for the rear headrest that you have to let them know you want to add to your order because they are not listed on the website. Still looks great and color match was excellent. I'm looking to do a new set in my GS430 next. I might add I used off white stitching. Not sure what others have used for different interior colors.

I replaced the leather on my SC430 front seats several years ago with customer ones from LSeat. My SC430 has the ECRU interior and the color match wasn't exact. The leather has held up very well but the color match seems to have gotten worse over the years.
The ambient lights / daylight highlights the difference from the original leather color. Current photos below.
There is one additional detail that should be acknowledged. I do believe (because the upholstery shop told me so) that the leather used by LSeat is what is known as synthetic or fake leather. You will not find real leather at $350.00 for a full set for your front seats. So, for lighter colors, I absolutely believe that the real? Leather used by Lexus OEM, will dry and fade differently than the replacement covers. Just pointing that out.
