Default Anyone use Katzkin??

http://www.katzkin.com

Has anyone used them on any of their other cars? They don't have a kit for the 350Z but at one point were pretty big over at TT.net. I'm just wondering how the quality, fit and finish are.

Do they just go over the OE seat, OR do you have to remove the seat trim and then put this on?

Thanks, and search isn't my friend today. =)

Well, I don't know the base price but here's what I'm getting.
  • Two tone leather covers
  • Perforated centers
  • Contrasting stitching

Total: $995 after tax

Did you really put that thing in your nose after it was already in someone elses? That's pretty gross.

Since you asked....
That girl in the back was the official katzkin "stick-a-hose-up-my-nose" girl, you sit down and she has a big box with hundreds of disposible nose-hose thingies that she "installs" on you, she was doing this the whole time I was at the show, I wonder how it sounded when they offered her the job"hey! want a free trip to Vegas? what do we want you to do? well, uh...."

The installed kit looks very normal in the car... meaning it doesn't look like you added them. That's a real good option when I get my Z. I want the enthusiast but I would like to have leather at some point. =)

Thanks!!! Are they comfortable?
