Replying to: bjerry (Sep 03, 2005 10:14 am) you mean it is not listed in the accessory brochure but individual dealership would install for you through their subcontractor if you ask for it? How much is this option? Do they appear and feel nice compared to original?

Replying to: han2 (Sep 04, 2005 9:16 am) That's basically it. I did go through the dealer, because the seats became part of the financed packaged, but there are at least two aftermarket companies that will install leather seats. Even if you don't go through the dealer, I suspect your dealer would know where you could go in the area. I paid about $1200 for the seats. I looked just now at the seats to see who did it, no tags. But, based on the stamps on the color samples, I believe this link will direct you to the right place http://www.katzkin.com/05/FC/index.html Do they appear and feel nice compared to original? By original, I presume you mean installed at the time of assembly in a factory in Japan. The leather is nicer, and it isn't black. I really liked being able to pick another color. I choose a medium grey to lighten up the interior. Also, the original seat covers had one large pocket behind the driver's seat, and now there's an additional pocket behind the front passenger seat, so I've a little more storage room. While checking for the tag I discovered something gooey my kid left on the seat. It wiped right off. And, that's the number one reason why I went to all the trouble to get leather seats.

Replying to: bjerry (Sep 05, 2005 6:15 pm) That's good to know. Never appreciated leather until I had them in my old SAAB, they were so easy to clean and felt much more comfortable. I saw Singapore website offer factory leather everything and some really crazy accessories.. |
