I didn't ask, but I'm pretty sure that they replace the entire upholstery. It didn't look like they could have done it by using a cover over existing upholstery. Supposedly, they even replace the fabric that is on the door arm rests on the CR-V. On the Civic that we saw, it really was a very nicely done job.
 
But definitely not cheap. I think he said that if you didn't want the heated seats it would have been about $1200.
 
I did find a company on the web that looked like it was probably the one that actually did the work. I think they were based in Vancouver BC, but they had a plant in Blaine, WA. But it looked they might work primarily through dealers. If I can find the URL again, I'll post it.

The dealer offered to do our 2003 CR-V EX with leather for $2000. I saw one - it was a quality job, with leather inserts in the doors.

One problem with messing with CR-V's upholstery is that side air bags are mounted in the seatback frame. The cover has to accomodate them, or it will get nasty in a accident.

The ones I saw installed had cutouts for the airbags.
