Leather as option from dealer?
#21
my salesman just contact me to today, bcuz he asked the shop why they didn't do the side panels and back panels for me.
the shop told him that they don't do side panels anymore bcuz of ppls complaint to them.
they said the side panel leather kept popping out everytime you close your door.
and the clip won't attach to the leather....
is that true or the shop just bull____ting???

We have added leather to a couple of TC including mine. Depends on what patterns and such will reflect the price. When we have leather put in a tc we send it off to a company that does it. They offer a lifetime warranty on the leather. Prices range from 1200 -1500 and that includes seats, arm rest, doors and back panels.

As has been said before, a dealer will basically just charge you a bunch of money and have some place install some leather for you. It's not official Scion leathered seats, there's no such thing, it'll basically be aftermarket leather thrown on top of your seats.

My leather was not thrown on top of my seats. The original cloth upholstery was removed, and the leather was put onto the seats. There's no way to tell it isn't factory, and frankly, the Katzkin leather is of better quality than many manufacturers use.
I had mine installed at the same shop my Toyota/Scion dealer uses, I just contacted them directly. I wanted someone else to put it in because 1) I don't have the time, 2) they have an installation warranty, and 3) they did a better job than I could on getting it all straight and looking good.
I definitely recommend it.

That's what I meant, I know all about the Katzkin kits but paying someone hundreds of $$ to install them is kinda crazy...how much did they charge you for everything? Just curious since I know every dealer does it differently.
