    I finally got my Roadwire leather seats installed this morning and I figured I’d share. I realize there are cheaper options like buying aftermarket seats or “other” seat cover companies. The total cost installed was $1715. I’m sure some people are grumbling at the price I wanted something that looked OEM-ish. I went with what worked for me. I have zero desire to do upholstery work to save a few bucks.

    I did, but it appears they do not make a kit for base buckets 2001-2004 in an extra cab configuration. I also tried leather seats and the same deal

    Looks great......price is only 3 or so truck notes on a new one......if its a Keeper, good investment in your own satisfaction.

    Who cares if people are bugged that you have money to put into leather seats! Those look great! I love when folks do high quality upgrades or mods to their first gens. Just because I don't have the money to sink into leather seats doesn't mean I can't appreciate it when someone else does! Thanks for posting the pics and sharing them here. They really do look OEM. Tastefully and well done, brother.
