    No those are not seat covers. its a leather kit and you have to take off the cloth to install .. it took me about 10 hours to do the install. well 5 hours for the seats and another 5 hours for the door inserts heh. Anyways I got it for $380 and installed it myself. It looks even better in person and plus those pics were taken at night since i finished so late. Heh . but i love them!!

    its hmm nt hard . but its defiantely not EASY. takes a lot of work. The cloth comes off okay.. its harder putting the lehater on. Door inserts was definately the hardest. Its definately doable though. i have had no expereince and i was able to figure it out. Just lots of hard work. Plan on taking the whole day

    Cool.. good luck with ur install. U wont be dissapointed in ther quality of the leather. its great.. heh I love mine.. Hmm just take your time nad u should be fine. Just reembmer how hte cloth seats go on cuz your leahter will go on the same way. you need to puncture hoiles .. I recommend using zip ties instead of hog rings.. this will save you about 2 hrs

    Yes you can (that's what rappers do) :wink: , but it would be pretty expensive having to make templates and installation.
    You'll most likely be out a car for a little while so they can work on it.
    The good thing is that you would be the only one to have those seats.

    Well, I just finished installing my leather seats.(dark graphite) It was definately one of the most time consuming things I have ever done for a car. It took me about 10 hours and thats not including the door inserts I still have to do, But I also used the hog rings instead of the cable ties which is why It took me longer. They look and feel great, awesome quality. I will take pics later and post, but for now it's time to rest my tired and aching hands. :D
