I won them at $100 + 55 but made a mistake in not asking for color samples and got wrong burnt orange color. I did check the leather out and was impressed with the quality and was done nicely. Sent them back express mail for $55 so thats $210, now he's gonna send me new ones..



I picked two tone D1 outer and D5 inner, its for a black Z...

So for anyone that plans to buy them make sure you ask for samples or your probably gonna get a different color..

I asked for a color similar to oem burnt orange and got these:

True they should be full leather

 

I wanted to post an update on the squeaky noise that I was dealing with for anybody who is interested in these seats. I found out it was my head rests rubbing against the seat back. I solved that by pushing the head rest up a notch. No more squeaking. Haha. Stupid I know. The seats have settled quite a bit and the only wrinkles are around the back corner of the driver and passenger seat bottoms. No big deal at all. Love the seats. They are much better looking than cloth IMHO.

 

Do you know how the manufacturer puts on the leather to the actual seat? Initially all seats are bare skin. Then the manufacturer upholsters the leather onto the seat. So technically, all seats ARE COVERS. Yes that means your OEM frost leather seats are seat covers, and they're not even 100% genuine leather. Get my point now?

The leather covers from the website provided in this thread are a direct replacement, not a cover. You have to reupholster them. Please, gain some knowledge first before making such an uninformative reply ... And don't let Pepboys or Autozone brainwash you.

Stop spending time @ Pepboys and read this article: http://www.leatherseats.com/installation.asp

 

Well.. i received the new leather today heres... a couple pictures

Not the same gray i asked for but it looks good..





I'll put them on later in the weekend...

 

You could have spend another 450 and got real seat covers made specially to fit your car exactly at my shop. I work at an upholstery shop and I HATE when people bring me stuff they bought off ebay. It never turns out and I spend twice as long trying to make myself happy with the way it looks when in reality they just dont fit. For about 800 you could get leather and real suede (alcantera), and there would be no wrinkles and will outlast anything you buy on ebay. Example..mine

 

your seats look really nice. Yes, i do have a bit of ocd and like things to be done right or not at all.

 

Passenger installed...

 

Are you going to get the heat gun after it and work out the wrinkles? There's a picture and maybe even an install guide on the actual ebay auction page.

 

I could try it but its probably not worth risking a burn as there aren't much of em, it's gettin better in time. The fit was good... im satisfied.

Installation is time consuming though.. so drivers seat will have to wait until this weekend.

 

im going to be honest, when i had my 03 daytona blue i bought a set of these leather seat covers to replace the cloth in my enthusiast. at first i was skeptical to order them for $349 is what i think i paid. i had to wait about 15 days or so and didnt understand at first until i found out where they came from. but anyways i did the install myself, and the seats came out flawless, even for me doing it myself and not having any experience doing a project like this. the seats were genuine real leather and i had them use the blue stitching to match the car. but needless to say everyone can be skeptical about them coming from ebay but i was actually amazed how they turned out.

 

 

very nice

 

JoeN350z did you do the install yourself? How hard is it?

 

dam that looks good

 

 

Yeah, its a bit tough but you can do it yourself. You will need help when putting on the leather on the headrests. You also have to make holes for the headrest and passenger back switch.You will need a couple wrench's, hog rings (already provided but you might need more) a plier.. like 6-7 cloth hangers and a lot of patience.

You can also patch up/reinforce the driver's foam (area that usually gets screwed up from getting in/out) while your doing the whole installation.

 

Hey all,
I ordered from this guy and just received the leathers. Everything looks like it will fit fine, however, the headrests are too short!! Did anyone else encounter this problem???

 

Damn good job. A pleasant break from black with black with more black.

 

I though the same. They fit perfectly you just gotta compact the headrest foam as much as you can and force the leather in without ripping it. Btw i didn't remove the headrest cloth. Get someone to help you with this...
