You are surely a man with discriminating a eye.

 

Here are some of the pics of my buddy & myslf doing the leather seat covers. In the 2nd pic you have to cutout this for the seat release, just use the old covers as a template. In the 3rd pic on the loveseat on the right the red handled babies are the hog ring pliers, I know you can't see em real good.

 

Will post up pics of the seats in the car, soon. The eBay seller includes 100 hog rings with the package, more than enough to do the job right.

 

are these ok to use with the stock seat heaters?

 

Its been good 5~6 months now and they leathers have been holding up very good

 

Nice dialog here... what's nice about Leatherseats-com is you can order a custom pair in 100% or 95% genuine leather, unlike OEM which is 50% or something along those lines.

The only part of my seats that was synthetic was the back panel w/ zipper. It's funny, but can tell the difference when you glide your hand across it, the genuine leather is smooth, no friction

Sure, why not.

 

the first time I've heard that leather shrinks. It usually does the exact opposite...

 

Leather shrinks when you steam it after the install is completed, this is what upholstery shops do. WTF do they know anyway?? I Have never herd of leather expanding, maybe it is magic leather.

 

rx8 stock leather seats has that red and black color ... nice

 

I want to re-do my seats too, but not leather.I need to look for a seller.

The leather replacements you guys installed look good.

 

Never heard of leather stretching? Sure no one probably ever went out of his way to tell you that it does, but imagine a pair of worn leather dress shoes, I can assure you that it's bigger than when it was brand new.

 

Do u guys know if the 07-08 headrest are larger than the 03-06? I noticed that the headrest on the install looks abit small... And leatherseats.com claims they changed the pattern of the head rest on the 07-08. Can anyone confirm this before I do my install? I have a kit from leatherseats.com (03-06) and they said the headrest won't fit an 08.
