Default Are these seats any good?

Found them on ebay, I know, I know.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/03-06-Nissan...ht_2319wt_1185

Am I better off looking at Katzkin. If so, are their seat covers any good?

Thanks.

For that money go Katzkin or leatherseats.com. Only way I'd go ebay covers again is if I got them for much cheaper than that, for reference I paid ~$250 back in the day. The other two options are much better quality, the only reason I can see to take the lower quality options is if they are much much cheaper, just make sure you'll be happy with your decision!

OP, why did you post this here?

Learn to search, you have more threads than posts which is never a good thing...

I would never pay $500 for seat covers. For that price, buy one used passenger aftermarket seat.

Thank you...and yes I know, I just saw the other sections, but just trying to learn. I travel every week with my job, I don't have time to post other than to ask a question I need to know.

Wait. so because you travel every week, you don't understand searching? That is the dumbest excuse I have ever heard.

You could probably find a set of leather 350z seats for that much money on here.

Even though this is in the wrong section, the seat covers look nice, aside from the "Z" on the headrest. Not a fan of that.

Their nice leather seats if that's what you're looking for.

Evil Crayon... I do not care what you think, stop trolling. The dumbest thing I have ever heard is someone criticizing me for the wrong thing. See the irony? You said I don't understand searching....I said I don't have time to search. Two very different things. Check your reading comprehension. I posted a question, I got my answer. Get a life.

Time is money, for some of us. There is a reason exec's pay others to wash their laundry, clean their house and do other simple tasks. My time is more valuable than to sit here and look through the search function to try and find these seats.

Albeit more selfish, spending 5 seconds to post a question, then checking back at the end of the day for my answer is more efficient.

And thank you for the advice for those who gave it. I will look into some other seats.

Just a quick heads up, those seat covers are meant to be installed at an upholstery shop. I worked in upholstery for years. They dont slide over like walmart seat covers. Some times they turn out not looking bad tho. I just wanted to make sure you knew before you made a decision. :-)st a

You must be a CEO or something greater in your own world, but not here. Have you ever heard of "When in Rome, do as Romans do?" You are in the stereotypically masculine community known as auto enthusiast website, where we've all earned respect thru searching before bashing at others. Your cockyass attitude won't get you no where because we've probably seen thousand of your kind and knows exactly where you are going. This topic has been covered million times before. We don't need to repeat ourselves when you can simply save OUR TIME by searching on your own. We don't need your attitude here as well, bye.

Humans are inherently selfish, it's how they get ahead. I thank the intelligent gentlemen who actually saw my thread for what it was, a question and for answering it accordingly.

Boomer, no offense..but horrible logic. The logic behind your sentence is that if I can't save money at one place, don't bother to try and save it somewhere else. Brilliant.

I'm not sure why all the bashing. At any rate, someone said to get the seat covers from Leatherskins.com. This ad is the ebay store for Leatherskins. I'm thinking you get the same quality from their ebay site as from them directly, and probably for the same price.
