dannycwu Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 I remember reading awhile back about certain websites that offered do it yourself leather seat replacement for our SC's. I think there was one that had options for how many panels of leather you could choose, thereby reducing the price. I did a topic search on this website and couldn't find it--could someone please direct me to the proper website again? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whh333 Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Danny, I got my leather seat skins from http://www.leatherseats.com/ and was very happy with them. They were made with a tough piping around the attachment perimeters that makes installation easier because the hogrings can grab them much easier. I took about 15-20 hours to install both front and rear seats, but that time could be beaten by someone with more experience or someone working more intensely. I took my time and enjoyed it. You will need hog rings ($5) and hog ring pliers ($15). The quality of the leather is great and it feels more like leather than the factory leather. I have always felt that the weakest quality of Japanese cars is in their OEM leather. Also, my kit included the center console piece, and I sent them my old armrest covers for a pattern. In exchange they sent me a prototype set of covers, so these are probably available with the kit now. Good Luck. Bill Harrison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannycwu Posted February 16, 2004 Author Share Posted February 16, 2004 Thanks for the reference, but wasn't there another website that offered partial leather seats for a discounted price? I remember clicking on it and finding substantial savings on that site. Please someone help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF3 Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Bill Harrison: Are the leather seats made from Hog skin or Cow skin, or do you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
