Default Leather seats from courtesy parts

Anybody have these or seen any of them in real life? I was thinking about looking into it, but I don't want to order them without being sure how good they are.

They seemed to be the original OEM seats without side air bags. (per what their website states)

From Nissan, leather seat covers for the North American market (left hand drive) 350Zs without side air bags.

These are the "official" Nissian approved aftermarket leather seat covers that can only be purchased from a Nissian Dealer. You can buy them at any Nissian dealer. In the package of things I received from Nissian after I purhased the car, these seat covers are shown in the "extras" book and have a list price of $975.

They are avialbale in factory colors, two-tone or single.

I shopped them at probably 10 dealers. Highest price quoted was $1395. I paid $749 installed (I think that was cost, or very close). My dealer listed $1295 as MSRP - installed - for these, but sold to me for the $749.

I think they are great. Better than aftermarket kits I have had in other cars. Very close to the factory leather in the touring.

Hey Morris,

Where did you have them done? Do you know if they have a two-tone blue on black? Didn't seem to on the Courtesy Parts site.

Thanks,
Favo

Cost is probobly about 400. Since i thinkj some people were selling them for $500. Mine were $750 installed, would have been only $700 with out perferation. Which is bull since i think they were same price from the manufacturer.

Some of the replies are talking about diffferent leather kits than the ones shown on the Courtesyparts website.

Those seats covers are available only through Nissian dealerss, and the kit has the Nissian emblem on the back of the seat. Some dealers install onsite, and some send them out.

I don't think they are available in Blue. They are only available in the "factory" leather choices which are come with the Touring model. I don't remember for sure, but I think that is only black, orange, and whatever they call the tan.

In response to where I had mine done, can't be of much help there. I purchased my car from a dealer in St. Louis and they did it at the dealership.

james at atd1.com sells Katzin leather seats in any color scheme you could imagine, they look awsome. I got some two tone black and Nissan burnt orange seats, they are great.
