Photos of tC's with leather *updated with pics*
I just got my tC seats wrapped in leather through the dealerships. Yeah I know, big mistake.
It took them 1 week to do it the first time, I got it back, and they did a terrible job. Not only was it a bad leather job, but they disconnected the passenger pressure sensor.
The 2nd time, it took them 9 days, and I'm not sure I'm totally satisfied with it. Oh! and the pressure sensor still isn't fixed.
ANYWAYS, I was wondering if anybody could post pictures of their tC's with leather, especially the back seats!
I tried searching, but I could barely find what I was looking for. THANKS!
edit: updated with pictures
First off, look at how they left the back of my car:
Here's the actual leather:
Maybe I'm missing something, but WHERE DOES THIS PIECE GO?

the pressure sensor is just a plug on underneath the seat.... they probably forgot the plug it back in while reinstalling your seats. go back to the cloth stuff and plug the sensor back in yourself. leathers overrated

Also, I'd make your dealer fix that job. The leather is wrinkled in quite a few places - definetly an amature job.

Ms. Jackal, we did not sell that car and you dont have any right to speak about our dealership that way just because you did not get your car from us and that you were offended by the trade in value of your car. Please retract that.

that's odd! my leather which I got from Family Toyota in San Juan Capistrano is perfect! I couldnt tell the difference between aftermarket and in something they'd put in an Avalon or a Camry from Factory. I'd defintly tell them you want it redone.

Maybe he/she did have it done at longo???? I don't know... It's just my opinion and I won't retract it.

Since I got my car on January 25th, I've driven it a total of 7 days. The dealership has had it for 17 days. They've ruined the whole experience of actually owning a new car. I should just give them the first payment to take care of 
I actually had it done at Power Toyota/Scion of Cerritos
I've already had it redone once, and believe it or not, this looks BETTER than before.

If you look at that piece that is disconnected, it's the one that goes right behind the back seats. It's got the holes for the three LATCH connections as well as the two tie down rings. It just snaps in. Read the subwoofer install instructions - they're on this board somewhere - as you have to remove and reinstall it in that process.
