I'm really wanting to change the look of my seats up without racking up a huge bill. The thing that really bothers me is the way it has lint ***** all along the sides and the color.

I'm not too sure about seat covers, I've never really been into that.

Has anyone changed out their seats? If so, do you have some pics and if not too personal, some prices? I also thought about reupholstering the seats and was kind of wondering about pricing. Anyone got some info on that?

Hmmm leather kits have been available reasonably recently and they dont fuzz ball. There were some leather kits for less than $300 recently but I think the vendor may have sold them all now, but maybe not. Try this thread for info.

if i were to buy one of those kits, i wonder how much a professional upholstery person would charge me to install? anyone have an idea?

I was gonna buy a set of Celica seats for my box. My buddies selling some if anyones interested.

If you are interested I can post pictures of my leather seat covers that I installed. It is possible to get good looking coverst that improve the look of the xb without breaking the bank.

Yup they aren't particularly hard to install. Upholsterers vary a whole lot in their pricing to hazard a guess would be useless. You need to call a few and maybe you can get them to give you an idea of cost.

yeah post some pics. i would love to see them. if you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay? and did you do front and back?

I will post pictures tomorrow and I paid $150 i think and i ordered them off of e-bay. I will post pictures tomorrow and all the relevant information my college's computers are epically slow and not worth the wait to upload from.

bspxb_krystal

IndigoXb

Best dang seat covers in the world. Very nice colors and piping options too.

Is is possible to use the same seats but change out the bracketry for the one out of the xA? The seats seem too high imo.

bspxb_krystal

wetokole looks like they have great seat covers. but like i said i'm looking for front and back seat covers for less than $ 200. looks like wet okole is double that for front and back. any other suggestions?

I have some cheaper ones right now that were about 275 for the set but they are cheaper fitting and looking than the wet okoli ones. You get what ya pay for when buying neoprene seat covers. They will be the next ones I get when I change up my interior color scheme.

I've heard that the seats are interchangeable but aren't the brackets the same height? What makes you feel the seats are too high. With all that head room mine could still go up an inch or so and I wouldn't mind.

supposedly you could put the front seats as rear seats, the tein xb has 4 racing seats in it

I just feel like im sitting in a chair and not a seat of a car if that makes any sense. It doesnt really bother me I just think it would be nice to see if it would be possible. And I just thought that the xA brackets were lower.

This is my goal for my next major mod. 4 racing seats! Ive seen this done in a Jetta. The rear will not require sliders and can basically be bolted directly to the floor. Moddifications may be needed in the xB due to the uneven floor where the bench seat currently resides.
