HAs anyone bought the Katzkin seat covers for our cars? Just trying to find out if they fit well and how hard they were to install. I don't feel like paying to reupholster my seats and those seam like the only two ways to get the color combo I want.

umm I don't have them but from what I've seen of them, and heard about them, unless you are an upolster you basicly can't do them yourselves, but just as a side note, the picture I've seen of them installed make the leather look really loose! and I persoally think they look like crap, well atleast the ones I've seen and the person who posted them said that the upolster guy said the leather would tighten up, but I have a leather couch and it got looser with time not tighter, so I dunno!

Alright so the guy you’re looking for with the Katskinz, is me.... Umm, well the leather is nice, soft and smooth, however I did have a problem with the drivers seat, when the company took apart the drivers seat, the cushion/foam (where you sit) fell apart in the upholsters hands so I had to get another seat to replace the drivers seat (went to a junk yard got a passengers seat had the guy @ the upholstery place switch the handle locations to get to the back). so the drivers seat still looks like crud, but overall it came out nice, Warning make sure you trust the people and or you, take your time and do it right, because you don’t want any short edges around the side panels and you don’t want any air bubbles... if you have any particular questions feel free to ask

I was just wondering how they fit. The install shop where I work has a professional leather guy that's gonna put them on for me. I've seen some of his other work and he's really good. It's just gonna cost me less money to get Katskinz that to do it from scratch. If I have any questions, I will let you know. Thanx for the help.
