Leather upholstery replacement/upgrade - Katzkin or CST? - Diesel Forum

Riggodeaux · 06-08-2006, 11:26 AM

The vinyl side of my driver-side seat cushion is cracking, and I've already patched where I could with one of those heat/vinyl applicators. Armrest getting ugly, too, and the leather surfaces starting to show the wear, as expected with a 6+ yr. old truck. SO - I'm looking at having the front seats reupholstered, since I haven't had a cheap set of gray[graphite] leather captain's chairs fall in my lap. There are a couple of nearby shops that do katzkin sales/installs, and there is a Classic Soft Trim install center nearby. Has anyone had experience [good or bad] with either of these company's leather products that will help me make a decision? Thanks

Thanks. The Katzkin prices I have seen are around $600 for the front row captain's chairs, with armrests, plus installation. I hope to visit the local installers during the next week or so ....
