****Katzkin leather seats from Moddiction. Tons of colors and materials to choose!

[Rich of So Cal]

You need to go into a Katzkin dealer.They are knowledgeable about the covers and will have the color samples. They do this all the time and will not screw your car up. The kit comes with console cover and the door panels that cover the armrests. ( Katzkins fhd0002 ) Good luck.

Yours came with a console cover???

Just an option for anyone to hat cares. In my town we have a company called MotorSheep and they make high quality seat covers for all makes and models. They specialize in sheepskin, but make all different leather and cloth ones also. I just priced having leather ones made out of one of the several colors they offer and it was just shy of $500 out the door with installation included. Just throwing it out there.

Seat covers will always be cheaper but of course also won't look nearly as nice.

Not a cover for the entire console,just the console cover or lid. Sorry for the confusion.

No confusion. That's more than I got. I only got door panels, no console cover. I am looking to Redline for a match right now, but their sample delivery system is super slow.:shrug:

The kit is not supposed to come with center console over. I don't believe katzkin even makes those. Must have been a 3rd party part that was included in price.

Mine sure did. Precision tint & seats in Knoxville,TN did the install. They do the new cars for dealers too.When I 1st went to speak with them they listed what I would get. That list included the cover.

 

[Moddiction]

Yeah it must just be made by a different company is what I am saying as Katzkin doesn't include that.

 

[Moddiction]

What about the GT350 Recaros?

I don't think there is anything for those as of now.

I got the full kit directly from Katzkin and it didn't come with a console cover but shops can order extra material and do it themselves. My shop asked me but I opted out of that because I like the black on the console.

finally

Well I got the Redlines samples today. None of them match, but....they left out the only one I was really interested in...Hazelnut. On the computer screen it looks like it might be a match. I left them a message. Hopefully they will send it to me soon.

UPDATE: they are sending it to me, asap. here's hoping it's a match!

The Hazelnut sample came today. It is close to Katzkin's Autumn, but darker. I am considering ordering Redlines sun visors, since they would not be right next to any of the Katzkin material. I think I will attach the sample to a visor and ponder it for a few days, before I decide. I wish it was a bit closer to a match. I don't think I will get the console cover, since that would be right next to the seats. On the other hand, since I have a Vert it might fade enough over time to match. Hmmmm. Decisions.

ordered

OK I went for the Redline visors, hazelnut leather, perforated with black stitching. $104 delivered.

To get the discount be sure to fill out an order, but then try to close the page and they will give you a discount code if you order right away. I actually did that twice...once I really closed the page, the second time I copied the code and actually did the order. So, it's easy to get. Was about $10 cheaper that way.

The visors look like an easy install since they use velcro to close up the seam. You do have to cut out a mirror opening, however.

I've been thinking about taking the plunge on some Katzkinz (Grey), but I'm concerned about the seat belt straps. How do they attach to the seats (non-magnet end)? I know that new matching straps don't come with these sets. Doesn't retaining the cloth straps with the contrasting color leather, look lame? I'd appreciate your thoughts in this regard. Thank you!

It hasn't bothered me at all. Others it may. I didn't even think of it until someone asked about about leather straps.

 

[soldier989]

Even with my stock leather take offs I have no issue with the cloth straps. It's such a minor detail thats hardly noticeable.
