Katzkin Leather Seats (pics)

They look fantastic! I'm sure an improvement in comfort too.

 

Yes sir. Totally changes the interior of your truck. I couldn’t stand the off-road interior. Ugly AF.

 

Where in the OC and how much?

 

Those covers are unbelievable dude. Wow!

 

The dealer had Katzkin installed in my wifes vehicle. The covers seems to hold up well and the only problem we've had is with a heater switch. I called Katzkin for a replacement and was told I had to go through my local dealer. Went to my local dealer, told him what I needed and he said he'd get me a price but never did. I called Katzkin again and was told that I had to go through one of their dealers, they couldn't sell it to me directly and they flat out refused to give me a part number for the switch. So I ended up doing a Google search, found a picture of my switch and ordering it myself.

My experience with Katzkin taught me they do not care about how shitty their dealers customer service is. I'll never be a customer of Katzkin again.

 

OC auto style in Anaheim. I went trough katzkin and OC auto style is one of their certified installer.

 

Clazzio’s just for comparison. Still look new after two years.

 

Clazzios and half the price. $500 for the leather and $100 for the heated seats and toyota switches. Looks factory!

 

I'm not saying anything is wrong with Katzkins but the price is high. They are indeed very nice and I have had them before. I don't see $600 nicer than my Clazzios.

 

Unless you order the full leather option

 

Actually All "leather" seats today are coated with polyurethane Vinyl. Nothing ever touches the leather, The test is to drop a bead of water on the leather. If it soaks in, its a real leather surface. If the water beads, it is Coated Leather meaning you can use 303 on it and nothing else. No "Leather Conditioner" will ever see the leather portion. Leather Conditioner HAS to be applied to real leather. There are no vehiclews with glove leather seats except those over 100K. The rest are coated.

Corrected grain leather as the name implies, is leather that is considered to be at the lowest end of finished leathers. It has been "corrected" through artificially creating a uniform texture (or grain) by impressing the desired texture along with aniline dyes, color pigments, and then finished with a clear top-coat.

• 
  
  
  • Virtually any modern day car (regardless of how expensive or exotic it is) will have leather that has been coated with a water-based, clear protective coating. (just like your car paint has a clear coat on it to protect the color or base coat of paint)
  • This means that the outdated, misinformed opinions regarding car leather care that society still clings to, must be replaced with correct information.

Man, I have always loved the look of these seats but the leather would fry my legs in the Nevada desert summer heat

That is the best interior seat pics I’ve ever seen the way they match

 

Just had these installed, hoping creases go away with sun/heat. Overall extremely happy. Black basic leather, black stitch with carbon accent. ‘Charcoal’ TRD stitch, looks more like silver to me.
