Have heard people getting leather installed for anywhere between $1300 for cheap stuff installed at their cousin/homie's shop up to $3000 for full on OEM quality and materials.

But if your going to do it, you might as well do it right.
Would you rather sit in a plush, tailored leather suit, or sit on a rubber rag that fits the seats like gloves fit OJ's hand?

My one regret on this was not getting leather tanned to match the seates for the doors. They sent vynal, that even though is a perfect color match, just doesn't "feel" the same.

Yeah, $3000 leather in a $17000 car is just crazy, yet I have seen it here on Scionlife.com!

I am going to guess I saved $1000-$1500 because I installed dynamat over the ENTIRE interior at the same time. I was getting quotes to put the mat down that topped $800! That is for the dynamat only!

I swear, because I live in Santa Barbara vendors feel like they can rape me on prices. Don't they know I have no money!?!

If you live nearby, maybe I could lend a hand or you could hire me to do it for you?
