Best I can tell you on the leather is that Lexus sells the covers .......at least it will match and now that my whole drivers seat is being replaced I highly recommend you get the foam seat cushion part before youi put new leather on it.

I am sure whether you go with LEXUS or some other supplier the foam which is $139. is money worth spent.

Personally, I would have Lexus recommend the shop they use and then have them check to make sure the wirings and brackets are tight...............if the seatback is being done be careful as the airbags are enclosed as well.

i had one panel (where i sit) on my Lexus SC300 replaced. and 2 panels in the back. The guy said i could opt for 2 panels on my driver's chair, but i said nah (it only had tiny cracking). It was $140 for one panel and would have been $190 for 2 panels. The leather was done by an auto upholsterer...not Lexus. It blends pretty well, though. He did my back 2 large panels for $260.
